Matt Larkin on Marner's Silent Exit & What the Leafs Can Learn from Carolina

Daily Faceoff Managing Editor & Senior Writer Matt Larkin joins Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to break down the biggest stories around the NHL and the Toronto Maple Leafs. First, the guys discuss the Carolina Hurricanes winning the Stanley Cup and the lengthy journey it took to reach hockey's summit. From there, the conversation shifts to Mitch Marner and the lack of any post-game media availability following Vegas' Game 6 loss. Larkin weighs in on Marner's overall playoff performance, explaining why he believes the star winger was excellent for much of the postseason but ultimately went quiet in the Golden Knights' biggest games—similar to what happened during his time in Toronto. Additionally, Larkin outlines the biggest lesson the Maple Leafs should take away from Carolina's championship blueprint, shares his thoughts on Toronto's ongoing coaching search, and explains why Jay Woodcroft makes a lot of sense as a candidate. He also discusses the Joe Pavelski buzz and why he's surprised Misha Donskov doesn't appear to be a serious contender for the role. Finally, Larkin weighs in on the Leafs owning the No. 1 overall pick and explains why John Chayka should keep things simple and select Gavin McKenna. #LeafsForever #TorontoMapleLeafs #NHL 🚨 Subscribe to TLN on Youtube!🚨 ➡️    / @theleafsnation401   🎙️LMT INTERVIEWS 📺    • Interviews   🎧 LISTEN TO LMT 🎧 ITUNES: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast...
