It’s been a week of returns in the NHL. On Monday, we saw Jonathan Toews’ first game back in Chicago, returning to the city where we won three Cups as a visitor for the very first time. The fans gave him a hero’s welcome , the sort of outpouring of emotion you rarely see in the sports world. It was a collective “thank you” to a player who meant so much to a franchise and its fan base. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJQTNxj0p3o Tonight, Mitch Marner will return to Toronto, and the reception wi...

First period
Tage Thompson’s line gets the puck to the front of the net just 15 seconds in. That can’t happen with the same regularity it did last week if Montreal wants to win.
At the 44-second mark, Buffalo gets the puck past Lane Hutson at the blue line, and Jason Zucker scores on the ensuing two-on-one. Montreal didn’t hear the wake-up call 30 seconds earlier.
The Habs have begun to come alive a bit after the goal.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are about to have three healthy and active goalie who should all be in the NHL, and it isn't a good strategy to run three goalie for very long. The Maple Leafs might end up having to do that for a short period of time, but Anthony Stolarz, who is returning from injury very soon, should be a trade candidate by how the other two have played. Nick Kypreos said, "There are teams out there that need a goalie and not a lot is available at the position. So, if Anthony Stolarz ...
The Toronto Maple Leafs didn’t expect Simon Benoit to be part of deadline chatter, but that’s exactly where things are trending now that he’s landed on The Athletic’s trade board . With the Leafs trying to reshape a crowded blue line and rival teams hunting for cheap, dependable depth, Benoit’s name is suddenly making the rounds as a realistic trade piece.

Benoit checks a lot of deadline boxes for teams that want a simple add that f...
Another game lost to too much caution offensively.
On the one hand, the Maple Leafs were swept by Detroit in the season series tonight, and that will cost them in the standings throughout the rest of the campaign.
