Today, a new interview featuring renowned YouTuber Logan Paul may have revealed a potential change in the Toronto Maple Leafs' captaincy for the 2024-25 NHL season.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have seen significant changes this summer, including the dismissal of head coach Sheldon Keefe and the subsequent hiring of Craig Berube as his replacement.

Since becoming the head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, speculation has swirled about upcoming changes to the team, with much talk centered on a possible trade involving Mitch Marner. However, today, a new YouTube video has hinted at a significant move involving John Tavares.
Logan Paul may have revealed the identity of the new captain for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Logan Paul released a new video today, featuring Toronto Maple Leafs star forward Auston Matthews. In the video, a graphic appeared on screen identifying Auston Matthews as the captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs while he conversed with Logan Paul.

This development could imply several scenarios. Firstly, it's possible that Logan Paul and his editing team might have oversimplified and referred to him as captain instead of assistant captain. Alternatively, it could suggest that the Toronto Maple Leafs are indeed appointing Auston Matthews as their new team captain.
The arrival of new head coach Craig Berube could prompt the appointment of a new captain. As John Tavares enters the final year of his contract, naming a new captain for stability would also be fitting. Typically, such decisions are announced by the Toronto Maple Leafs once they finalize their choice and inform Auston Matthews.
As of now, the Toronto Maple Leafs have not officially named Auston Matthews as their captain. It's possible that Logan Paul and his editing team were simply speculating about future developments.
