This has been a fun start to the season for the Toronto Maple Leafs. Last year they struggled against Montreal but somehow won, they played good against Ottawa but lost due to defensive struggles. This year they’ve largely played even or better than their first two opponents on the way to two decently convincing wins.
Auston Matthews is firing even more ridiculous shots than ever before — I still can’t see when the puck goes in on a real-time replay. Mitch Marner has 4 points in 2 games. William Nylander has 2 points.
