Several Problems Emerge Early in Season for Toronto Maple Leafs

The Toronto Maple Leafs are not playing to potential right now, and there are a few things that bring concern.

The Toronto Maples Leaf are currently 2-2-0, with a fairly easy schedule on paper: Senators (W), Habs (L), Capitals (W), and Coyotes (L). In the process, there have been a few issues that arose but, thankfully, they appeared early in the season.

The obvious one is the health and durability of Matt Murray, where the injury-prone goaltender is back on the shelf for 4 weeks despite playing only two games. To be honest though, the Leafs knew what they were getting, they can’t be surprised, and they probably don’t mind the cap space.
