"Through 44 outings this season, Colorado, led by Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar, who are clear front runners for the Hart and Norris Trophies, have lost just 11 games. Wild, right? Colorado's 33-4-7, and unsurprisingly, they're currently on pace to notch the best regular season record in league history. That's all that's standing in the way of the Maple Leafs and a potential eighth win in ten games. Anything's possible, though."
"A big chunk of the first block of the show was dedicated to recapping what happened against Vancouver. William Nylander tallied three points - two goals, one assist - and Joseph Woll made 29 stops for his second shutout of the season en route to a 5-0 beatdown of the lowly Vancouver Canucks. Toronto went 2-for-4 on the power play and 6-for-6 on the penalty kill. Suffice it is to say, they've figured out their special teams situation over the past little while."
Toronto has extended its point streak to nine games (7-0-2), improving its position in the Eastern Conference playoff race and displaying sharper play since the holiday break. The Maple Leafs dominated Vancouver 5-0 with William Nylander contributing two goals and an assist and Joseph Woll recording his second shutout with 29 saves. Toronto converted 2-for-4 on the power play and was perfect 6-for-6 on the penalty kill, signaling a turnaround in special teams. Max Domi scored his second goal in 32 games and Scott Laughton continued control in the faceoff circle, winning 36 of his past 42 draws. Toronto now heads to Denver to face Colorado.
