Noteworthy:
-Toronto native Luca Caputi scored his first goal in a Leafs uniform, in his first home game with the club (4th game overall). “Since day one, I’ve tried to make this positive for the Maple Leafs,” said Caputi after the game. “I want to prove that I was worth dealing a good player (Alexei Ponikarovsky) to Pittsburgh. It’s a good win for the guys, and a good way to make my homecoming in Toronto.”
