The Toronto Maple Leafs are looking to secure a crucial victory against the rested Anaheim Ducks, who, despite not being in playoff contention, have won three consecutive games. With a chance to extend their Atlantic Division lead to three points following the Panthers' loss, the Maple Leafs face a challenging matchup. Coach Craig Berube highlights the young talent on the Ducks' roster and recognizes the importance of maintaining solid defensive play and creating offensive opportunities as key strategies for tonight's game.
They have lots of good young players who are playing well right now. They won their last two games.
We talked about it being a playoff-type game, and that is what it was. It was low-event. I liked our checking.
At the same time, you have to be careful in doing that because we don't want to play loose and exchange chances.
Our rush defense will be critical in today's game.
