"Joseph Woll was dynamite, turning aside 31 shots and improving to 9-1-1 over his last 11 appearances. The Leafs also killed off a crucial penalty late in regulation, setting the stage for William Nylander's OT heroics. All in all, it made for a fun conversation as we broke down everything that unfolded. There's a reason Colorado owns the NHL's best record - they gave Toronto all it could handle."
"Meantime, in the opening block of the podcast, we also touched on Jay Rosehill's favourite athlete, LeBron James. In case you missed it, LeBron announced he'll be wearing a special-edition patch for the rest of the season to commemorate his record-setting 23rd NBA campaign. On top of that, we also dove into the coaching shakeup in Columbus, where Dean Evason was fired and 70-year-old Rick Bowness came out of retirement to become the Blue Jackets' new head coach. Yeah - we're very versatile podcasters."
The Toronto Maple Leafs returned to a playoff spot for the first time since November 7th after a 4-3 overtime victory over the Colorado Avalanche. William Nylander scored the overtime winner, snapping Colorado's 17-game home win streak. Joseph Woll stopped 31 shots and improved to 9-1-1 over his last 11 appearances. The Leafs killed a crucial late penalty and received goals from Easton Cowan, Auston Matthews and Bobby McMann. Nick Robertson exited early after blocking a shot and his status is unclear. The team travels to Utah for the second game of a back-to-back before a forthcoming showdown involving Mitchell Marner. Columbus replaced Dean Evason with Rick Bowness, and LeBron James announced a special-edition patch for the season.
