The Toronto Maple Leafs are taking on the Vancouver Canucks later today, but that’s not the only news around the Leafs.

Here are some of the top stories around the internet on the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Pierre LeBrun has an article on TSN where Brendan Shanahan addresses the parallel’s of the Leafs and Chicago Cubs.

“There are always so many different nuances to each team’s approach in each sport. I couldn’t even tell you all of the details [of how] Chicago has rebuilt its team.” (TSN)

    An article on le Journal de Montréal talks about a Kingston family who names their kids after Leafs players.

    “La dernière de la famille Amey est née le 27 octobre et elle s’appelle Kadri Lee, en l’honneur de l’attaquant Nazem Kadri. Ses deux sœurs ont comme prénom Justice Tucker (pour Darcy Tucker) et Angel McCabe (pour Bryan McCabe), tandis que leurs frères se nomment Domi (pour Tie Domi) et Colton Orr (exactement le prénom et nom de l’ancien des Leafs).” (le Journal de Montréal)

    And now in English…

    “The last of the Amey family was born on 27 October and is called Kadri Lee, in honor of forward Nazem Kadri. His two sisters are named Tucker Justice (Darcy Tucker) and Angel McCabe (Bryan McCabe), while their brothers are called Domi (for Tie Domi) and Colton Orr.” (le Journal de Montréal)

    Apparently, Netflix is helping Frederik Andersen relax. (CBC)

    The Hockey News has a post up on Frederik Andersen’s Batman mask. (The Hockey News)

    On IIHF’s website, there’s a good read on Nazem Kadri and how he’s embracing his given role and playing without a letter on his chest.

    “I think I’ve got a pretty good understanding. Whether you get a letter or not, you still have to lead by example, and that’s what I intend on doing.” (IIHF)

    Puck drop against the Canucks is at 7ET tonight. Be sure to tune in and let’s hope the Leafs do to the Canucks what the Blue Jackets did to the Canadiens last night – or we can just laugh at the Canadiens and enjoy whatever outcome the game has, that works too.
