As if you need me to tell you this. but it’s worked out perfectly. The Toronto Maple Leafs sit in 5th place overall, and John Tavares is having a career year.
When he scored his 38th goal of the season on Saturday against the Edmonton Oilers, he tied his career high.
Now like me, I’m betting many of you reading this had to do a double take when you heard that. Johnny T’s career high was only 38 goals?
I could have sworn it was more.
It is now.
John Tavares and the Toronto Maple Leafs
Tavares set his career high on Saturday, then Wednesday night in an otherwise forgettable game against the Black Hawks, he set it again.
