"I think the power play helps, obviously, and I think just all four lines are playing hard. Winning battles at both net fronts, get into the opposing team's net and outnumbering guys.

"I think we had all four lines going, but Auston was on a mission tonight and Bobby was competing hard. So, yeah, big goal for sure, but we had everyone going."
The Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Ottawa Senators 7-5 in their first game after the holiday break, earning two points. Auston Matthews recorded a goal and two assists, ending a four-game point drought, while his line with Max Domi and Bobby McMann produced five even-strength points. Max Domi posted three assists and has five points in two games. The Leafs scored 13 goals across their past two games, helped by strong play at both nets and an effective power play, with all four forward lines contributing consistently.
