Mike Babcock Post Game, Leafs 6 vs. Capitals 3: “We had lots of guys on deck tonight”

On the team’s performance and the slump-busting performances:

I really liked our first penalty kill and the thing ends up in our net. I thought our guys had done a great job, but that is unfortunate. We had a good effort tonight. Good for guys to be rewarded.

I thought Brownie, Willy and Naz had a really good night for them. It was good for all of them to feel good. It’s important for Willy but I think important for Willy and Naz as well. They were an important line for us. I thought Tavares’ line matched up; with Kaps and Hyms, they did a real good job against the #19 line there with Ovechkin on it.
