Talkin' bout a Noteworthy November, Farewell to the King, and the Legends of the Women's Game with Maria Quinto

Ladies Talkin’ Leafs

November was bittersweet for Leafs Nation. While the team rounded out November on a roll with Magic Mitch continuing his points streak and tying the Maple Leafs franchise record, we also said farewell to the King, Borje Salming, who left us too soon, passing away after a brief battle with ALS. We are grateful to MLSE for allowing us all the opportunity to say goodbye in person, and we are sure that the commemorative patch that they created in support of ALS, will find their way into many stockings this holiday season.

In the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, we shine the spotlight on AM34. He's quietly collecting the points, helping his teammates shine, and doing all the little things at both ends of the ice. On the flip side, we try to make sense of the team's struggles this season 3 on 3, and make our case for how to fix it.

November had no shortage of LTL Highlight Reel worthy moments. With the way Mitch Marner has played, the whole segment could've been devoted to him! We did manage to find at least one other teammate to shine a spotlight on, and paid our respects in honour of a Leaf Legend.

For this episode's instalment of the Third Period, we were pleased to welcome children's book author and long time Manager of the Toronto Aeros Senior Women's Hockey Team, Maria Siracusa Quinto, who stopped by to discuss her series of children's books titled, "There Once was a Girl", which brings to life the stories of Canadian Women's Hockey Heroes. It was an honour to talk to Maria about her experiences in hockey, and learn more about the rich history of the women's game, and the inspiring stories of legends Angela Jame and Geraldine Heaney.

To wrap, we have another exciting announcement! It's time for our annual Holiday Giveaway, and we have a prize lined up that any Leaf Fan would be blown away to find in their stocking this year! Stay tuned to the end of the show to get all the details on the prize and what you need to know to enter.

As December is underway, we are hoping that the Leafs continue to keep the good times rolling. The schedule is a bit of a mixed bag, with points to be had, and some good measuring sticks as well. It's been a real team effort of late. Good practice we think for when it really counts. Go Leafs Go!
