Maple Leafs' strong bond contrasts with recent game losses

The Toronto Maple Leafs have lost five of their last six games but maintain strong team chemistry through a lively group chat. Veterans Ryan Reaves and Mitch Marner help keep the team connected during this challenging period. The group chat serves as a source of humor and camaraderie, allowing players to share funny moments and stay engaged. Despite Reaves being reassigned to the AHL, he remains active in the chat, contributing to team morale. While off-ice unity is strong, the Maple Leafs are struggling in the standings, currently sitting third in the Atlantic Division. They need to convert their team bonding into better on-ice performance as the playoff race intensifies.
