"It's a good win before the break, and going in with a positive attitude into the break,"
"I think those days off are important for sure. A little reset and bring some energy tonight. Gotta do a lot of the same things we did last game."
"I think just the new voice, and just some different setups going forward here right now,"
"We don't need to complicate anything right now. We need to get some feel back on the power-play and get some chemistry going here with the units."
The Toronto Maple Leafs entered the holiday break after a difficult road trip and a subsequent win over the Pittsburgh Penguins that improved team morale. The break offers days off to reset and restore energy before the next stretch of the season. Morning skate mood was positive ahead of the game against the Ottawa Senators. Brandon Carlo is skating with the main group and progressing, but a full-practice return is required before reinstatement. Steve Sullivan was promoted to assistant coach and will help run the power-play with Derek Lalonde, focusing on simple setups and rebuilding chemistry. Anthony Stolarz remains out indefinitely.
