Real Gud Pros

Did you know Auston Matthews is a good player? We just wanted to make sure you were aware. Join us as your hosts discuss just how good Matthews (and Marner) are, the importance of preparing for life after hockey, ongoing women's hockey shenanigans, and, most importantly, decide which McDonalds items different Leafs are.

So much to discuss in this episode. Auston Matthews' 50 goals. Multiple Leaf to Leafs. The passing of Eugene Melnyk*. Jake Beagle having a hissy fit. And on top of all that? We thought it would be fun to live react to the April 5 match between the Leafs and Panthers, which was actually just so uneventful and calm. Please enjoy the chaos that follows. *Please note this episode was recorded prior to...

Bieberfever has overtaken the Leafs and we've had to place them all on LTIR. Luckily, that means we can bypass the cap and bring them back for the playoffs. Thank you Brandon Pridham. Join us as we discuss the Leafs' Next Gen jerseys, LTIR loopholes, the Leafs' love of Adam Sandler, and the Dadanov saga — no soap operas, just hockey.

Another year, another trade deadline, but is Claude Giroux being a Panther really as interesting as John "Sticky Karaoke Fingers" Tavares? The Real Gud Pros argue no. Join us this week as we talk trades trades trades, the psychological advantage of stealing captains, some new musical Leaf to Leaf revelations, and of course, our last week of games.

No, that's not Darryl Sutter's voice you hear — Liz just strained her voice. But nothing will keep your fearless hosts from telling you all about the Leafs' most recent goalie struggles! From Leaf to Leafs to 1000th games to trades to whatever that Heritage Classic was, join us as we discuss everything Leafs from the past few weeks.

Sucks to be Cher, but we can turn back time. Join us as we travel back to a time where Adam Brooks was briefly a Leaf, the Canadian women had just won gold, and the Habs were trading Tyler Toffoli. So young, so innocent. Come for the hockey, stay for the celebration of our favourite hockey-related thread.

Sometimes you just have to take a minute to laugh at other teams' misfortune. Join Liz & producer Emily as they have a good chuckle over Arizona's new arena, the Oilers' new coach, and how little we care about Olympic Men's hockey. Come for the Leafs talk, stay for the Olympic figure skating discussion.

This week we find out what happens when Helen and Liz are left to their own devices on a Wednesday evening. Chaos, it's mostly chaos. Somewhere along the way, we talk Rocky Wirtz (ugh), consider how to sic Eugene Melnyk on The Dread Convoy, and do a deep dive on all things All Star, including some of our own ideas for improvements. As always, NHL we are waiting for your call.

Same ol' shhh but a different day, as One Direction so wisely said. Join us as we discuss Willie O'Ree's number being retired, the return of Evander Kane, racism in hockey culture, and so much more!

Can you believe we made it to 100 episodes?! Join us and the RGP OG's, Kyra & Mel, as we discuss Covid and the NHL (this is a recording), Evander Kane and his never-ending chances, the NHL All-Star Weekend, and so much more!

It's that time of year again, time to set aside our differences and spread joy through gift giving … even if that means forgiving Muzzin for his assassination attempts. And definitely NOT forget to choose a gift for our dear captain, John Tavares. Would never do that. Ever.

'Tis the season to… worry about Mitch Marner mostly, actually. This week, Helen and Liz try to keep up a positive attitude in the face of too many Leafs; injuries. Arizona really couldn't do us a solid and get locked out of their arena, huh? Still, we persevere and discuss this extremely chaotic week in games, suggest some non-Bieber celebrities to be the face of the Leafs, and finish off by casti...

Sometimes people don't do their jobs and bad things happen. And if you're the NHL, this happens almost weekly. Join us as we yell about NHL reffing for a not-insignificant amount of time, laugh at the spree of NHL firings, and get derailed talking about the Tkachuks — so the usual.

There are good ships and wood ships, ships that sail the sea, but the best ships are friendships. This week Helen and Liz value the power of friendship, or ferda as it's known in these here parts. Join us as we discuss the Superbuddies, New Jersey's new jerseys, and the opposite of ferda: biting the boys.

As Stevie Nicks so hauntingly sang: time makes you bolder, even [hockeys] get older, and I'm getting older too. Join us this week as we discuss Dion Phaneuf's retirement and the complicated feelings that brought on, Covid and the NHL, the reality check of watching the Leafs with a Sens fan, and play an absolutely horrifying game of Leafs Would You Rather that Liz has yet to recover from. Sorry Aus...

This week, Liz and Helen take us on a journey through the dark side of Tik Tok, speculate about who ruined the relaxed dress code for the rest of us, and decide which Leaf is having a whole breakdown over Red (Taylor's Version). They also talk about some hockey.

Join us this week as we discuss Mrazek's injury, Jack Eichel's freedom, and check in on our favourite family, the Tkachuks. Have the Tkachuks played Boar on the Floor? Something tells me yes.

Hockey was a mistake. This week we discuss the ongoing sexual abuse investigation happening in Chicago, including player reactions, the fallout of the report, and Kyle Beach's interview with Rick Westhead. Also discussed in this episode: Morgan Rielly's contract extension, Mitch Marner's new teeth, and the Leafs' week in games. Chicago Blackhawks & Kyle Beach discussion timestamps: 1:31 - 48:41

Gather round and grasp your neighbours' hand. We're starting a prayer circle. This week we breakdown the vibes of our 3 losses, our feelings about how the Leafs look, and why we need to all take a collective breath. It's only game, why you have to be mad?

The Leafs are playing real, meaningful hockey again but more importantly? Mitch cannot read the word encyclopedia. As far as Liz is concerned, nothing else of importance happened this week. Join us as we discuss the Leafs' first week back, both in terms of content & games, the mess that is the Ottawa Senators, and Harry Styles: noted Canes fan? The 1D to hockey pipeline might be too powerful.

It's our All or Nothing extravaganza! Join us as we break down the Leafs' All or Nothing season episode by episode, discussing important matters such as: how large Zach Bogosian is, why Brendan Shanahan is the supreme Nylander defender, what the hell the secret coffee club is, and why Jack Campbell makes us want to scream.

Hello and welcome to season 4 (!!!) of Real Gud Pros. We're off our ELC and have signed a controversial bridge deal. This week we discuss Sheldon Keefe's contract extension, medical malpractice and the NHL, and make our season predictions. How wrong will we be? How much Leafs' bias is too much Leafs' bias? Will we ever learn to manage expectations? All signs point to no. Further reading and show n...

We're finally closing the book, locking it shut, and throwing away the key on the 2020/2021 NHL season. Good riddance you stupid league. Join us as we discuss free agency season so far, Dubas' weird Soo Greyhounds fetish, and (as always) league shenanigans.

We're back — but only for a moment! Your favourite Leafs podcast return for a little check-in. See what's happening, what the cool jams are. Join us as we discuss the Week of Drafts (Expansion AND Boy Auction), our new gay son Luke Prokop, and express our disappointment and disgust with the Montreal Canadiens, Chicago hockey team, and the NHL in general, if we're being honest. Discussion of Logan...

This week your hosts reached Leafs enlightenment. Genuinely. Like we reached another place of understanding and acceptance. It's kind of incredible really. We also discuss suspensions and DoPS because when don't we, noted witch Taylor Hall, and which Leaf should have a hot girl summer. Still waiting for our crop tops in the mail, Kyle.
