Toronto Maple Leafs News

Anthony Stolarz - Gets third win of season Stolarz made 35 saves in a 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

Impact Stolarz is 3-1-0 in four starts with a 2.99 GAA and .897 save percentage this season. That save percentage is slightly better than the current league average (.892), and his GAA is a hair worse than average (2.91). In a projected 30 starts this season, Stolarz will be as good as anyone you can have in the blue paint and maybe even better once the team in front of him figures things out. The Leafs have been a mixed bag so far, so Stolarz's numbers could even improve with time.

William Nylander - On pace for first 100-plus point season Nylander had a goal and an assist in Toronto's 6-2 victory over Columbus on Tuesday.

Impact Nylander's strong start continues. He has six goals, nine assists and 33 shots in 11 games so far. Five of those points (two goals, three assists) have come on the power play. If he can stay healthy, Nylander could top the 100-point mark point with ease. He's in the NHL's top-10 scorers and on a 115-point pace right now.

Auston Matthews - Among greats with major milestone Matthews had a goal and an assist in a 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

Impact His goal stood as the winner. And the snipe was Matthews' 436th goal in his 700th career game, tying Pavel Bure for the sixth most by an NHL player through that mile marker, behind Hall-of-Famers Wayne Gretzky (589), Mario Lemieux (580), Mike Bossy (542), Brett Hull (504) and Jari Kurri (454). Matthews is on fire so far this season. He has five points (two goals, three assists) in his last two games and 18 points, including eight goals, in 11 contests so far. Both of those marks put him in a tie for second in the league thus far.

Morgan Rielly - First multi-point effort this season Rielly had three assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Columbus.

Impact It was Rielly's first multi-point game this season. The elder statesman on the Toronto blue line has seen his role change with the arrival of Darren Raddysh, and Tueday's game was just the second game in his last eight that Rielly hit the scoresheet. His days of 72 and 68 point seasons are long gone, but this performance shows he can still create in transition now and then. Whether that translates into more than last year's 36 points (11 games, 25 assists) remains to be seen, though. This performance gave him seven assists on 14 shots in 11 games this season.

Jack Roslovic - Big three-point game in win Roslovic had a goal and two assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Both Roslovic and linemate Easton Cowan had three-point nights -- are they this good or is it a function of their pivot? That's a guy named Auston Matthews. Roslovic's best season came in 2021-22 when he put up 45 points, including 22 goals on 131 shots, in 81 games. But he did score at a 58-point pace in the COVID-shortened season when you project it across a full season. Roslovic is worth a waiver squeeze while he's enjoying AM34's company.

Easton Cowan - First three-point game in NHL Cowan had a goal and two assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The goal came shorthanded to push the score to 4-1. Cowan became the first Maple Leafs player age 21 or younger to score a shortie since Mitch Marner on Feb. 14, 2019. It was also his first NHL three-point game. Cowan is sitting fourth in Leafs scoring with 10 points (four games, six assists) in 11 games. He already has 23 shots in that span. We don't expect Cowan to maintain this pace, but the kid has outperformed expectations at every level.

Kirill Marchenko - Scores in return to Columbus Marchenko scored a power-play goal in 6-2 win over Columbus on Tuesday.

Impact It was Marchenko's first game back in Columbus after his Sept. 28 trade to Toronto. He is on a modest two-game, two-point streak (one goal, one assist; four shots) and has 11 points (five goals, six assists; 29 shots) in 11 games in his new uniform. At this rate, Marchenko will raise the bar with a new career high. The season is still young, but his 31-goal, 74-point high water mark (2024-25) is well within reach.

Jake McCabe - Departs game after high stick McCabe (face) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Blue Jackets

Impact McCabe was high-sticked in the first period, drawing a double-minor penalty. The 33-year-old defenseman's injury is apparently serious enough to keep him out of the rest of the game. He'll be questionable to play Thursday at home versus the Rangers.
