## Resource

Even though the Toronto Maple Leafs aren't playing in the Stanley Cup Final, they still are a part of the spotlight. Mike DiStefano and Dave Morassutti dissect the media firestorm with executives like Kent Hughes and Kelly McCrimmon firing shots at the Leafs, while Mitch Marner’s “dark times” comments continue to make waves. Can Marner shake off playoff pressure and silence critics, or will familiar mental hurdles undermine his pursuit of the Conn Smythe? Mike and Dave preview the Cup Final between Vegas and Carolina, the hosts break down X-factors, Conn Smythe frontrunners, and what makes the Hurricanes slight Cup favorites
