Craig Berube on whether Mitch Marner's 100-point milestone could provide a boost heading into the postseason: "He's played really good hockey this year, so I don't know why it would end going into the playoffs"
Briefly

Craig Berube praised the Maple Leafs' 4-0 victory over the Buffalo Sabres, emphasizing their strong defensive play and the key contributions of players like Auston Matthews, who reached 400 career goals, and Mitch Marner, who achieved 100 points. Berube noted the importance of teamwork and individual achievements throughout the season, indicating the team's readiness for the playoffs. He also recognized goaltender Anthony Stolarz's timely performance, underscoring the team's overall strong play as they prepare for upcoming challenges.
I thought we checked pretty well. They are a very good rush team and created some chances off the rush, but our D did a good job of recognizing the situations and killing some plays.
We had a lot of guys do some real good things individually, but the team played a really good, strong team game throughout the season, in my opinion - defending, doing the little things right, and playing for each other.
He has played really good hockey this year, so I don't know why it would end going into the playoffs. He just has to keep doing what he is doing.
I have seen it for a bit now. He is just very calm and composed on the ice.
