Leafs Winning Factors + Where Will Ponce Slot In?

Brent Gunning and Sho Alli open the second hour by alongside Gord Stellick, former Maple Leafs GM and friend of the show! They break down Toronto’s win over Florida last night, assess whether the Leafs are truly back, and evaluate the team’s play when healthy. The trio also discuss Joseph Woll’s workload, Auston Matthews’ resurgence, the defence corps returning to form, and Toronto’s playoff outlook. Later, MLB Network insider Jon Morosi (25:25) stops by to discuss what Blue Jays fans can expect from Cody Ponce. Jon shares how his KBO performance could translate to the Majors and Ponce's fit in Toronto's rotation, before forecasting some other offseason moves, potential trades, and the shape of the remaining free agent market. This hour wraps up with thoughts on the Olympic ice situation in Italy for 2026 Winter Games.
