Game 26 | The Leaf: Blueprint Moment
6 months ago
Mika Zibanejad - Two-point effort against LeafsZibanejad scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to Toronto.
ImpactBoth points came in the second period as the Rangers tried to rally from an early 4-1 deficit, only for the Leafs to re-asset themselves in the third. Zibanejad has gotten onto the scoresheet in 10 of the last 11 games, piling up six goals and 13 points over that stretch as he shakes off an early-season slump.

Blake Wheeler - Lights lamp twice in lossWheeler scored two goals on five shots on net in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.
ImpactThe 37-year-old came into the contest with only two goals in his first 26 games as a Ranger, but Wheeler doubled that number Tuesday while snapping an 11-game goal drought. His first season in New York has been a disappointment so far, and despite seeing plenty of shifts alongside Mika Zibanejad at even strength, Wheeler's managed just eight points through 27 contests.

Igor Shesterkin - Buried by LeafsShesterkin turned aside 23 of 29 shots in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to Toronto.
ImpactThe 27-year-old netminder got hung out to dry by a Rangers defense that mostly stood around and watched as the Leafs built a 4-1 first-period lead. The six goals allowed were a season high for Shesterkin and he's been far from his Vezina form lately, losing three straight starts and posting a 3.59 GAA and .894 save percentage over nine appearances since he returned from a lower-body injury in mid-November. Look for Jonathan Quick to continue getting more work than expected until Shesterkin gets on track.

Calle Jarnkrok - Two points against BlueshirtsJarnkrok scored a goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Rangers.
ImpactBoth points came in the first period as the Maple Leafs jumped out to a 4-1 lead. It's Jarnkrok's first multi-point performance in over a month, but the 32-year-old is on pace for a career-best campaign with seven goals and 16 points through 26 games.

Mitchell Marner - Three points including GWGMarner scored two goals, one the game-winner and the other on the power play, while adding an assist in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Rangers.
ImpactIt's Marner's second three-point effort in the last six games after he notched a hat trick Nov. 30 against the Kraken. The 26-year-old is comfortably cruising toward his third straight 30-goal, 90-point campaign, racking up 11 goals and 29 points through 26 contests.

Auston Matthews - Four-point eruption TuesdayMatthews produced two goals and two assists, with one helper coming on the power play, in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Rangers.
ImpactHe opened the scoring early in the first period on a delayed penalty call against New York, as William Nylander danced through the Rangers' defenders before feeding the puck to Matthews for a one-timer. Matthews then helped set up a couple Mitchell Marner tallies before potting his own second goal in the third. Matthews has four multi-point performances in the last six games after slumping through most of November, and on the season the 26-year-old superstar has 21 goals -- tied with Brock Boeser for the NHL lead -- and 32 points through 26 contests.
