Season Opening Heroics! Matthews on Fire, Name that Tune, and Hockey is for Everyone

As a new NHL season begins, we thought we’d kick things off this episode by sharing our Podcast origin story for any new listeners that may have recently joined the LTL community. From fandom to becoming best friends and hockey buddies, we’ve channeled over 30 years of passion for the Blue and White into this show and we’re so grateful to have all of you along for the ride! Of course we want to hear your stories too—connect with us on social media @LTL1917 or via email at LadiesTalkinLeafs@gmail.com.

Speaking of social media, we've got some exciting content on our YouTube channel (@LTL1917). Join us for in-game videos and highlights from the matches we attend. Plus, stay tuned for a big announcement later in the show!

It’s still early days for the 2023-24 NHL season, but that doesn’t mean that there’s any shortage of great plays and news to discuss! We open the show and get back to our regular season format with "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly," discussing early standout performances, the new goal song, and the absence of ugly moments in the first two games.

Next up, it's time to roll the Ladies Talkin’ Leafs Highlight Reel! From Nylander's beauty against the Wild to Matthews' hat tricks, we break down the top plays and share our thoughts. Don't miss the love for Marner and Tavares, who play crucial roles in setting up these highlight-reel moments.

In our Third Period segment, we explore upcoming milestone moments for key Leafs players. From Tavares approaching 1000 points to Marner's goal and assist targets, we break down the stats. Plus, Morgan Rielly's vocal stance on the NHL's decision to ban pride tape and themed jerseys sparks discussion.

To wrap up the show we preview the Leafs' upcoming schedule, including a couple of road trip possibilities and exciting matchups with playoff opponents. Then, as promised we have some exciting news to share, so be sure to stick with us!  There’s nothing like the start of the season, and it’s so great to be watching games that mean something again! While the team is still a work in progress, there’s already plenty to be fired up about!  We’re beyond thrilled to be continuing the conversation, sharing our hopes and dreams for the team for another season.  Thanks as always for listening! Go Leafs Go!
