ANTHONY

Quite a bit of deception on this pass, as Nylander fakes regrouping up high and seams the pass to Tavares on the heels of the PK box telescoping out.

Nice Matthews impression, Mattias

Back door Johnny, because 3 is enough

Walkman laser beats Stolarz clean Knies gets it back right away from Roy bottling up a breakout attempt by Ingram

Solid Finnish

Did all the pressbox game watching unlock Nylander’s defensive reads?

Pretty good, fully committed period by the Leafs.

Great forechecking effort by Willy (which is also good defense)

Bread-eater mad

Laughton refuses to uncork the slappa

That’s a good start but is that really what we want

Knies needs and new knee (technically just rest and recovery). If the Leafs front office has already committed to selling, why not just shut him down for the season or another month? to prevent a top 10 pick from going to Boston?

Frost thought he had boxed him out fully (as did the rest of the Flames who moved into wall support outlet positions), but released off the boards to try to make a play on the puck in his feet. That gave Nylander enough room to get his stick on the puck and flick it to a Maccelli drifting into...

Send him some gas station sushi

This sort of thing is kind of why you could build a lineup with David Kampf or Nic Roy or Scott Laughton (or Fraser Minten in a different timeline) centering Nylander if you need to build a deeper lineup. He can make good on solid defensive structure in the slot for counter punches. That being...

Coronato took a hefty slash at McMann after Bobby gave him a late shove into the boards. I think there was some gauntlets about to be thrown down later on as the bottom-6 hassled Coronato repeatedly, but nothing really came of it. Anyway, we don't really want to see the Leafs PP these days.

Shoutout to Brandon Carlo who was excellent in his realm, and looks like a very capable NHLer when he’s not having to decipher what Rielly is doing.

First game I get to watch in like 2 weeks and it’s MotM: Will HM: Woll

First round pick worthy McMann with the dagger
