Gus on whether the Leafs are more aggressive with their forecheck so far this season:

I think it’s pretty much same as it was close to the end of last season. However, it seems like they are a bit more aggressive. I wouldn’t say it’s a straight 1-2-2. It looks like they are adding another forward who is pressing a little bit harder. I’d need to see a few more games just to verify, “Are they trying to make a hybrid 1-2-2 and a 2-1-2?
