I think you are kind of splitting hairs for no reason. It was a great hockey game that could have gone either way. Both teams had ample chances. Both goalies stood on their heads. Debating who had marginally better chances in such a close game doesn't really matter, at least to me. Either team could have won and felt like they battled well and were rewarded. I was happy to get a point, 2 would have been better. The Leafs did seem to swarm for longer and had a few more 'how did they not score there' moments but it is what it is now. Was a fun game even though it was totally scoreless until the last possible seconds.

It was Zajac's first game back, I saw him dump it in and chase more than we are used to seeing and take some safer plays than we are used to seeing with the kids. He is still trying to get to game speed here, I liked him on the line with Bratt and Stafford, I think they will improve. I thought Nico had a good game also. Every time that first line is on the ice they make things happen.

Great post! ..agreed ..Zajac once the rust wears off..he'll be able to contribute and add another weapon to a already skilled group! . .the team is going to be hard to beat! Their younge guys will be getting better too!..bratt butcher wood and nico!.
