Craig Berube on a big win in Florida for the Maple Leafs: "Probably one of the fastest-paced games we've played all year"

"Good win. I thought that everybody contributed tonight. The goalie was good. It was a solid game all around. We checked hard and were physical. A lot of good things tonight, so it was good to see. Yeah, tonight was probably one of the fastest-paced games we've played all year. I thought we just closed on people and checked. When we had pucks, we skated and attacked. Our forecheck was good tonight. Pace was really good tonight."

"They're just on it. Joshua and McMann have been really good on the walls in our zone. Roy does a good job of being underneath and supporting. They get the puck, and when they go down into the offensive zone, whether it is on an attack or they have to forecheck, they are heavy. They're doing a good job with their sticks."

"He is playing with a ton of confidence right now. He is very composed. He and McCabe look like they have instant chemistry right now, which is great. They are moving the puck extremely well. When you talk about pace, Stecher plays with pace out there. He closes on people, he skates, and he gets up the ice. He is doing a lot of good things."

The Maple Leafs beat the Florida Panthers 4-1 to reach a 12-11-3 record. The team played a fast-paced, physical game with effective checking and strong goaltending. The Joshua–Roy–McMann line played a heavy, tenacious game, winning d-zone faceoffs, maintaining puck possession in the offensive zone, and driving to the net. Troy Stecher has provided confidence and strong puck movement with immediate chemistry alongside McCabe. The team closed on opponents and attacked aggressively when possession allowed, producing one of the season's fastest games and a solid overall performance.
