Craig Berube praised the Maple Leafs' performance in their recent 6-2 victory over the Calgary Flames, now improving their record to 40-24-3. He highlighted the urgency in the first period, which set the tone for the game. The power play was notably effective, while the penalty kill excelled due to strong pressure and awareness. Auston Matthews' leadership shone with two goals, showcasing his competitiveness. The dynamic McMann-Domi-Robertson line contributed to the effort with speed and tenacity, effectively containing the Flames throughout the match.
The effort in the first period, with the urgency and the way we came out and shot pucks, and our attempts were way up - we were right on top of it. There was no room for them. That was a key start to the game for us.
Good pressure. That was a big part of it. The guys were really pressuring and moving their feet. We really did a good job of breaking some plays up.
