Ian Tulloch joins Game Day on TSN1050 to talk Toronto Maple Leafs defensive play, scoring depth

On the team’s play in their loss to the Oilers:

How long have we been begging the Leafs to play good defense? They’ve finally done it in the last couple of games. Part of me wants to feel good because McDavid didn’t create anything off of the rush against the Leafs. At the same time, you look at the Leafs‘ performance in the offensive zone, and they won’t able to create anything. It felt like they were living on the perimeter, circling the wagon again and again. Last night wasn’t what we’ve come to expect from the Leafs, but they might be better defensively than they have been in previous years.
