Leafs Hour: State of the D-Core

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne, and Sam McKee examine the state of the Leafs' defensive core through 9 games, the lack of success in defending the rush and Max Domi's search for his role this season. Then, they search for some optimism for the team's offence. Later, Sportsnet.ca's Eric Francis (30:00) stops by to chat about the type of team Toronto will be facing with the Calgary Flames, Nazem Kadri's fit, Dustin Wolf's prior post-game comments on the team's performance to start the year, if the organisation will look to shift into a rebuild, and the expectations for the young defenceman Zayne Parekh.
