The Toronto Maple Leafs have now dropped five straight, and Zack Phillips goes live on Leafs Nation After Dark to break down a truly alarming Game 19 collapse in Chicago. From another blown lead to structural failures all over the ice, Zack digs deep into why this team continues to unravel — and why this is no longer about coaching, injuries, or roster tweaks, but a full-on indictment of the core and the identity crisis dragging the Leafs to the bottom of the Eastern Conference.

Zack unpacks everything from William Nylander going back-to-back games without a shot, to the brutal defensive miscues from Morgan Rielly and Filip Myers, to the lack of leadership, accountability, physicality, and buy-in that showed up once again in a third-period no-show. He also breaks down Joseph Woll’s season debut, Easton Cowan’s bright moments, Nick Robertson’s goal, the team’s inability to defend the middle of the ice, and how the Leafs repeatedly let Chicago dictate the final 20 minutes.

From effort level to system confusion to a total collapse in identity, this episode digs into all of it — plus your super chats, your calls, and your real-time reactions. Hit like, leave your thoughts in the chat, and stay locked in for full post-game therapy all season long on Leafs Nation After Dark.
