The Leafs are coming off a great trip out west having won 3 of 4! During this roadie we also welcomed back John Tavares, Anthony Stolarz, and in a figurative way Morgan Rielly, who after a chat with the coach is starting to look like his old self again.
In this Quick Hits episode, we take a look at the road trip and breakdown the games. There was lots to excited about, including a power play that finally started clicking, player milestones, and a hometown hatty! There is still room for improvement though, especially with the line combinations, something we are sure Brad Treliving will be looking at shoring up before the season resumes.
Our star of the week for this segment is a long serving D-man that has been struggling to find his game. Don't know if the words of "encouragement" from the Coach did the trick, but something seems to have clicked for Morgan Rielly earning him Star of Week honours for this episode!
When this show hits the airways, the 4 Nations Face Off puck drop will be mere hours away. I think we're actually more excited than we thought we would be to finally watch some of the best from these 4 countries square off.
Come February 22nd though, everything will be on the line for the Leafs, and we will know in short order, who may be joining the roster for the stretch run.
Enjoy the 4 Nations Tourney everyone! Go Leafs and Go Canada!
