4 days agoKraken head coach Lane Lambert on his experience in the Toronto market with the Leafs: "I'd certainly heard stories about how you walk down the street and this or that (might happen)... It didn't happen"
Coming back to Toronto, you know this Leafs team very well. What do you expect out of them? Lambert: They're a dynamic hockey team with tremendous individual skill. They don't need a lot of opportunities to put the puck in the net. They're dangerous. Watching them play the Rangers, they played fast. They're just a good hockey team that is solid top to bottom. They've got a defense core and good goaltending. Good team.
