Game in 10: Marner, Matthews, Murray, and Maple Leafs special teams keep rolling in win over Red Wings

Your game in 10:

1. The last three road games for the Leafs went perfectly according to script to start the game — they went out to early leads in each — so it was a good test to see how they’d respond to an early goal against.

An Auston Matthews turnover inside the Red Wings’ slot with Victor Mete aggressively activating inside the offensive zone led to an odd-man rush against that Matt Murray made the initial save on, and there was a pretty feeble effort to box out and clear up the loose-puck situation around Murray in the crease by the Mete-Hollwell pairing plus Matthews, leading to a scrambly goal finished off by Moritz Seider.
