"Yeah, it was good. In morning skate we were working on it the whole time. It was a good shift by him there, I was pretty fortunate to score there."
"That's a good question, I think just overall, we were executing better,"
"I was in a different spot on my goal, and I think that goal by Willy was just an entry play. We executed and found a way to score. So, little things like that, execution, structure, be in the right spots, it's what helped us today."
"It was pretty electric, it was just back and forth, the crowd was into it. A lot of scoring, a lot of offense. But, I think we need to have a little bit better of a third period, especially the star"
Matthew Knies scored two goals, including the game-winner, to lead the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 7-5 win over the Ottawa Senators and snap a nine-game goalless drought. Knies registered his eighth and ninth goals and reached 33 points in 34 games. The Leafs converted two power-play goals on three chances after assistant coach Steve Sullivan adjusted the power-play structure and moved Knies into a better shooting area. Knies credited morning-skate work and execution with Max Domi for the playmaking. Scotiabank Arena was loud for the Battle of Ontario, but Toronto still needs to tighten up its third period; the team sits 17-15-5.
