Leafs get first pre-season win, sorting through competition in bottom six

Locked On Leafs - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Maple Leafs

The Toronto Maple Leafs got their first victory of the pre-season, but did we get a clearer idea of which forwards are making a case for a job in the bottom six? Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on the Leafs' 2-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, which had some concerning moments with William Nylander leaving the game and John Tavares limited after a hit. With the victory, Mike and Dave get to hand out their Three Stars of the Game, highlighting strong performances for Nick Robertson, a pair of veteran defencemen and Easton Cowan. Mike and Dave end the show by discussing the tough decisions the Leafs coaching staff have to make, with a lot of forwards vying for jobs in the bottom six and only so many positions up for grabs.
