With the season of the Toronto Maple Leafs still young, I have decided to unveil a weekly takeaways segment here on The Editor In Leaf.

As the Maple Leafs season continues the goal for this segment is to pull two to three thoughts from the week that was for them.

Monday’s – aside from this week – will be the slot in which select three to five events that occurred on and off the ice then talk about them in detail.

For this week the Maple Leafs had three games in which they played against Winnipeg Jets, Minnesota Wild, and Chicago Blackhawks. There are plenty of takeaways from this past week, from the Matthews vs. Laine to dropping three leads in all three games.

So now here’s the inaugural weekly segment of last week’s takeaways on a Monday.
