Overview
- After a three-game win streak, Toronto lost home games to the Bruins and Hurricanes and allowed 10 goals over the weekend.
- The power play sits at 17.1% with an 11.29% shooting rate and just 62 shots that rank 26th, with slow entries and perimeter play leading to resets and short-handed chances.
- MoneyPuck tracks 260 giveaways, including 116 in the defensive zone, contributing to odd-man rushes and goals against.
- Craig Berube has challenged the team’s consistency following lapses such as two Bruins goals in 20 seconds and a blown 4-2 lead while being outshot 35-10 over two periods by Carolina.
- Goaltending has lagged behind last year’s standard through 16 games, and Anthony Stolarz was pulled on Saturday.
