James and Jon did their homework starting the All or Nothing: Toronto Maple Leafs Docuseries (00:00). Preseason is coming to a close with just two games left before the regular season. NHP sums up their thoughts on the New York Islanders captain, Anders Lee, returning to in-game action (22:00), the top-6 forwards that are likely headed into the regular season (23:15), Barry Trotz's thoughts on the Isles first line (25:05), Oliver Wahlstrom's subpar training camp (30:40), is Erik Gustafsson close to winning a contract on his PTO (35:55)? Chara and Dobson working well together (47:45), Matt Martin nearing a return to health (51:33), and Semyon Varlamov's questionable status for the start of the season (52:15). PLUS, NHP takes a trip around the rink to discuss an ongoing issue in the UHL (58:33), Robin Lehner's comments via Twitter (1:04:18), and the Jack Eichel situation may finally have a conclusion. This and more in episode 80.
