Shot attempts were 1-16 in the 10:21 of 5-on-5 ice time that Myers played tonight. Goals 0-2. xGF% of 3.01%. It's a shame Matt Benning is hurt because you gotta think the door would be wide open for him to get another NHL shot if he wasn't.

I despise these. Thank god I bought a 4 Nations jersey.

I've been as critical as anyone about Kampf's contract but I feel for him here. Dude has his flaws but he should not be considered a 16th forward on a NHL team. Would the 4th line really had been any worse during Laughton's absence if Kampf was playing that role instead? Tough to imagine that...

15 powerplay points in 18 games this season. Last season in 67 games he had........ two (2).

JT HM Maccelli

JT and Maccelli were my picks even going into the 3rd. Nice to see them both rewarded with goals for their play.

Shocked he didn't pass that.

Maccelli could easily have had 3 or 4 primary assists tonight.

Kinda ironic that Laughton and Lorentz returning is what causes Cowan to get sent down after it was his performance on a line with those two in preseason that largely earned him his job out of camp.

The 10 game burning a contract thing only applies to 18/19-year olds who get sent back down to the junior leagues. Since he's 20 years old Cowan's first year of his ELC begins this season regardless of where he plays.

I was a little surprised to learn today that the Leafs have the most 5-on-5 goals in the league so far this season, and Nylander leads all players in 5-on-5 points (with JT and Knies tied for 2nd with a bunch of other players). If their PP was even kinda working things would be a lot calmer in...
