The Recap

The first period began with chances at both ends, but it was the Habs that struck first with a quick one-timer by Daniel Audette that eluded Leafs' goalie Antoine Bibeau. London Knight Victor Mete sent Will Bitten up ice, who kept enough distance between himself and Keaton Middleton to find Audette gliding unchecked through the zone towards the net.

The Leafs got the first power play of the game in the first, and Mitch Marner looked fantastic on the half wall, getting and setting up several chances, but just missing on each.
