Toronto Maple Leafs: Power Play Comes Through but Marner/Tavares have Rough Game
The Toronto Maple Leafs beat the Colorado Avalanche last night in Colorado.
The Toronto Maple Leafs really had no business winning this game, but it did serve as an excellent example of why a team needs a dangerous power play, and it showed what the Leafs could be if theirs was even an average power play for the last two months.
Basically, a good power play means you don’t have to be perfect to win.
The Leafs might be (by goals for and goal differential) the NHL’s best 5v5 team, but they didn’t shower that last night.
But they did ride three power play goals, and a fantastic night by Freddie Andersen to victory.
