Insider Drops A Bombshell regarding the Maple Leafs
In a recent podcast, this NHL insider dropped a bombshell prediction for the Leafs this upcoming season.
Paul Bissonnette Drops Bombshell Prediction for Leafs Upcoming Season
Paul Bissonnette is a vocal Leaf fan, sending hot predictions last year on his Spittin Chiclets podcast and actively cheering for the Blue and White during their playoff series win last season.
On the Leafs Morning Take podcast, Bissonnette talked about what he thinks the Leafs can do this year.
Overall I think this is a team that is easily going to make playoffs, it's just a matter of what they can do and how they are gelling at the time when they do get there.
They're going to finish top 3 in that division and they are going to make playoffs.
Bissonnette A Fan of Leafs Toughness Additions this Offseason
Biz went on to discuss how he thinks that the Leafs made some good additions this offseason to bolster their toughness, something they've lacked, as Jay Rosehill points out the incident where Stamkos rag-dolled Matthews in last year's series against Tampa.
I just like where they are from a team toughness perspective, especially with adding Reaves as well. All the other guys can just worry about playing, if they need him in the lineup, they have that intimidation factor.
As a former tough guy himself, Biz understands the value that a player like Reaves brings to the locker room in any given night to allow star players to play freely on the ice.
