My wife could gather that part of the delays related to a mechanical issue with the plane; leading to both a plane change and a crew change.

Anyone have any more information on the reasons for the delay? And why numerous rolling delays?

Expertflyer would seem to agree with at least some of that:

CITY INFO HOUR (LOCAL)

YYZ ESTIMATED TIME OF DEPARTURE 1930
DELAY NON-SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
DELAY FUELING/DEFUELING
LEFT THE GATE 1931
TOOK OFF 2002
PLANE IS LATE (IN HOURS MINUTES) 0055
AIRCRAFT CHANGE
ESTIMATED TIME OF ARRIVAL 2229 SFO
SFO AIRCRAFT LANDED 2224
ARRIVED 2231
