Despite a slow start, former NHL coach Bruce Boudreau believes the Toronto Maple Leafs are destined for very big things during the 2025-26 season.
While some may consider the Toronto Maple Leafs' start to the 2025-26 season a slow one, one analyst is telling fans they have nothing to worry about when it comes to the standings.
Bruce Boudreau Tells Maple Leafs Fans Not to Worry About Slow Start
Boudreau told the NHL Network that he has no doubt the Maple Leafs will finish this season in first place, and will head into the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs with home-ice advantage.
"Up and down. Missed a lot of camp. That always hurts a guy a little bit. Just kind of not fully healthy, in my opinion."
