1. So much of the emphasis ahead of this matchup is naturally placed on avoiding feeding Edmonton’s transition/rush game (tops of the league in rush offense), not forcing the issue, and keeping the play in front of you if you’re the Leafs. Similar to the game against Ottawa, though, the Leafs gave up a few too many odd-man rushes early in the game.
Just 1:30 in, during an offensive-zone sequence for the Leafs‘ second line and second pairing, Connor Brown recovered a loose puck and was in full control of it on the right side of the Oilers’ defensive zone, as the other two Edmonton forwards — Adam Henrique and Mattias Janmark — released the zone for a break the other way.
