"We're down. You know, just moving guys around," Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube said of the switch after the game. "They went out and scored right away, and then I just trying to get some goals back as quickly as possible."
Winners of their last three consecutive games, the Leafs are aiming to extend their streak to four, while forward Steven Lorentz took time to discuss the end of his own personal streak – avoiding the penalty box.
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Steven Lorentz received his first penalty of the season in Saturday's 7-3 comeback win over the Montreal Canadiens.
The Toronto Maple Leafs scored seven unanswered goals to overcome a three-goal first-period deficit for a 7-3 win over the Montreal Canadiens.
The Toronto Maple Leafs lost a close Battle of Ontario on Saturday, but one crucial oversight may have cost them the game as the team neglected to make a challenge.
Pacioretty took a puck to the head area in front of the net during a shot attempt from teammate Auston Matthews on Jan .18 against the Montreal Canadiens. Pacioretty remained in the game but missed the next two contests against the Tampa Bay Lightning and Columbus Blue Jackets.
Steven Lorentz shared his thoughts on joining the Maple Leafs’ top line with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner. The move came after Matthew Knies was replaced on the line.
The tally snapped a nine-game drought for the fourth-line winger, who has 10 points over 46 outings.
Steven Lorentz said on Thursday that Knies was in good spirits after leaving Wednesday's game with an upper-body injury.
Asked about the state of extension talks with not only Marner but John Tavares and pending RFA Matthew Knies earlier this month, Leafs GM Brad Treliving said, “Those are things that we always are looking at and talking about and rumbling around, but nothing to report right now.”
The Maple Leafs held their annual Easter Seals skate on Thursday inside Ford Performance Centre. Bobby McMann was smiling as he raced a child from the blue line to the red line during the Toronto Maple Leafs' annual Easter Seals skate on Thursday.
Lorentz and Woll stood by Matthews after his words on Wednesday, also admitting how special Toronto's fanbase is.
