"We are stressed about trying to score goals, but we certainly had a lot of chances and opportunities. At the end of the day, until they start to go in the net and we find a way to get more than one or two goals, we are going to make it tough on ourselves. It's a broken record. We have to find a way."
"It's huge. He's our captain. I really like the way he is playing lately, driving the play, getting good opportunities, and playing with a lot of pace and determination. A week ago, I just noticed him taking pucks to the middle of the ice more and attacking, taking people one-on-one, and winning all of those battles. He has an attack mentality around the net, and he looks like he is ripping the puck with more oomph on the shot."
Auston Matthews returns to the Maple Leafs' lineup for tonight's game at Scotiabank Arena. The Maple Leafs aim to take advantage of a fatigued Winnipeg Jets team that played and lost in Detroit last night. The Jets are enduring a seven-game winless stretch (0-4-3) and have struggled to score consistently, often chasing games after early mistakes. Scoring depth, special teams and goaltending all need to improve for the Jets to reverse course. Matthews is showing increased aggression attacking the middle, winning one-on-one battles and generating harder shots around the net.
