Outstanding effort from the Leafs whole shift. Marner has a great 1-on-1 move to maintain the play. Hilarious defensive scramble by the Habs.
 
I think Montreal got one good chance (Gallagher on the PP).
Leafs scored two but could?ve had 4-5 more.
 
Montreal forwards are not ready for Nylander?s defense on the boards. He is stripping pucks at will.
 
Mikheyev almost buries a beauty after forcing the initial turnover to gain possession for the Leafs

Dude does not give up either. Zach Hyman with greater reach and actual scoring hands?!
 
Ceci has completed like 4 passes that normally get iced by Zaitsev just going blueline to red line.
 
Ray pointing out Sandin directing Marincin to the far boards to receive the pass in the offensive zone. Poise in the youngster has sealed the deal for me. Seems like that's the third pairing come the start of the season.
 
Very strong forecheck by the Habs on this PK. Can?t stop Nylander from entering the zone though.
 
Leafs first PP couldn't even gain the zone on that one. They put Nylander out and he immediately skates it in with no issues.
 
Lol Kapanen partial breakaway ends exactly as we expected? With a 12 o?clock wind up slapper.
 
Habs score at the end of this PP and the refs wave it off for kicking. It?s a good call.

Hainsey was great for half a season and then regressed to his abilities and Babcock's overreliance.  Hopefully we can get a decent year out of Ceci given that he has a forward group that plays better to his skillset.

Ceci?s a lot younger than Hainsey was, so chances are good he can build on this as he gets more comfortable with the system and the teammates. He just has to keep it simple.

He made a great patient read and took the puck away pretty deftly.
 
Leafs on pace for 45 shots tonight and this is one of them so far :)
