Leafs Hour: Taking On McDavid + The Matthews Mystery

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee look ahead to the Leafs' matchup against the Oilers on Saturday and discuss Auston Matthews's status as he is ruled out again. They get into the secrecy around Matthews, the Leafs needing more from Max Domi, the idea of William Nylander or Mitch Marner moving to centre and how they defend Connor McDavid. Later, Sportsnet's Luke Fox (34:45) weighs in on the Leafs' recent play, the vibes in the locker room, the lack of depth up the middle, the effectiveness of Berube's low-event philosophy and Anthony Stolarz building a case for a spot on Team USA.
