Earlier today, I poked holes in the idea that this is a Cup-or-bust season for the Maple Leafs while looking at the scoring depth, youth, and continuity developing within the roster. Let’s now jump into my notes, quotes, and Five Things for the week.
Notes
– The Leafs were scorching hot in February coming out of the All-Star break, going on a big run of collecting points and all but cementing a playoff spot. During their hot stretch, William Nylander, Auston Matthews, and Mitch Marner were second and tied for third, respectively, in the NHL in points in February.
