"With the season already underway, the main focus for the Leafs and the fans is to play winning hockey. Currently sitting fourth in the Atlantic division with a 7-5-1 record, the Leafs have slowly picked it up after a slow start to the season, now on a two-game winning streak heading into tonight's game against the Utah Mammoth. How the new core has looked so far on the scoresheet is something that people may worry about. Well, let's break it down."
"Matthews has put up decent numbers so far this season, with 11 points in 13 games, while leading the team with seven goals. His line certainly looks different without Marner on his wing. However, he is still battling and trying to get back to the superstar scorer status that Leafs fans know well. Through the first 13 games played last season, Matthews put up the same numbers that he has through the same number of games this season."
"Despite missing a couple of games early in the season, Nylander has picked up where he left off from last season, as he leads the Leafs in points and assists. He's played both on the second line with John Tavares and on the first line with Auston Matthews this season. It seems as though whichever line he plays on, he makes an impact right away."
The Toronto Maple Leafs began the season 7-5-1 and sit fourth in the Atlantic Division, entering the next game on a two-game winning streak. The offseason saw hometown player Mitch Marner depart, prompting lineup adjustments and mixed reactions from Leafs Nation. Auston Matthews leads the team with seven goals and has 11 points in 13 games while adjusting to new linemates and seeking a return to elite scoring form. William Nylander leads in points and assists with 18 points in 10 games and produces regardless of line placement. John Tavares has contributed 16 points in 13 games.
