The Toronto Maple Leafs are having an absolutely fantastic season to date.
The Toronto Maple Leafs got off to a bit of a rocky start, losing to several terrible teams (Montreal, Anaheim, San Jose, Arizona) and causing quite the panic.
Since then, they’ve rebounded nicely, and they’ve done it while suffering a nearly comical amount to injuries, especially to their goalies and defensemen.
So far this year, the Leafs have seen both Matt Murray and Ilya Samsonov miss significant time with injuries. Samsonov hurt his knee, and Murray his groin. The Leafs were lucky to get them back, but it’s obviously a situation that will bear watching.
