<description>Is Kawhi Leonard the best Raptor ever? It's early, but a case can already be made, and he's been a driving force behind this team feeling, once again, different. 
It's been an up-and-down start to the "sans Matthews" era for the Maple Leafs. A look at who needs to step up, and why you need to back off the "trade Nylander" talk.

Monday November 5, 2018: Kawhi This Year Is Different

<description>Auston Matthews is out for a month. What does that mean?
(1:40) Matt examines the impact of the star centre's absence on the rest of the line-up. Don't expected it to hasten the negotiations between the club and William Nylander, either.
(14:48) Nick Nurse is undefeated as Raptors head coach so far. Which buttons has he been pushing to get the most out of this club, and is maybe the best yet to come?
(24:00) A tip of the cap to the Boston Red Sox for winning the World Series--and the former Blue Jays who got them there. The Jays have a new manager, so what can we expect from him and the club in the offseason?
(31:22) A look at the next 7 days in Toronto sports.</description>

Monday October 29, 2018: Auston Matth-spook

<description>The Maple Leafs have started the new season with wins in five of six games. The most recent contest was easily their best. Matt breaks down the road trip, and improved special teams play.
13:00 - As the Raptors begin the NBA campaign, some key questions will be analyzed throughout the duration of the season.
19:49 - The Blue Jays need a new manager. A quick look at some of the names being considered, and an update on the MLB Playoffs. 
26:11 - Tom Brady vs Patrick Mahomes I was awesome. We want the rematch (and a potential Super Bowl matchup that might top it). 
29:22 - Running you through the schedule for the next seven days of sports.</description>
