Raising Chelsea, a Hulu original series, streaming exclusively on Disney Plus. 18 plus subscription required T's and T supply. We are in the regular season with a bang. We've got some front office shakeups, and we got Allison Lucan to talk about the Seattle Crackins playoff hopes. This is the hockey show. Let's start off with the Toronto Maple Leafs. A couple of teams actually in this league as well as Vegas have had some front office shakeups. We're starting with the Maple Leafs here as they fired the general manager Brad Tree Living.

It's just a really bad situation for a team. That up until this year, I think it made the playoffs nine straight seasons. Yeah, I think that we've shown this year, this year has shown, if anything, that Mitch Marner and Toronto were better off with each other.
