"There's so much passion around the city & for the Leafs & I've really tried to embrace that. I love being a Maple Leaf. It feels like you're playing for something bigger than just the 20 guys in there so it's really special."

Troy Stecher on Saturday's game in Edmonton:

"The two best players in the world going against each other. All-Canadian matchup. It's one of the reasons you play the game. It's going to be a fun one."

Is Auston Matthews back to the form that allowed him to chase 70 goals?

William Nylander: "Maybe even better than at that point. So, I mean, we'll see. I think 70 goals is, you know, crazy, but I mean just the way he's playing is about the same probably"

"Were they throwing snakes at Brady?" 😂

William Nylander was asked about Brady Tkachuk's return to Ottawa vs. John Tavares' return to Long Island 😅🐍

Is Jake McCabe frustrated with Kent Johnson

"A little bit, yeah, I'll be honest. Guys can take better care of their sticks ... I've gotten a couple high sticks the last 3-4 games & they seem to be from younger players. So, keep your stick down"

Darren Raddysh on Matthews:

"He's back to the Auston I remember when I first came into the league & going up against him when he was trying to get 70 that game ... That's vintage Auston & I'm glad to see he's back to his old self"

Leafs D Jake McCabe explains how he felt moments after his scary eye injury, and explains that the Leafs having a multi-goal lead contributed to the decision to stay off the ice for the 3rd period.

Jake McCabe on the ice for Leafs skate

High sticked near the eye on Tuesday in first period & held out the rest of the game as a precaution

[Claire Hanna @clahanna]

10 minutes of content heading into the Florida/Senators game with @SunGarrioch.

We talk: Brady’s reasons for leaving Ottawa, relationship with Stützle, Tkachuk’s legacy, as well as Hodgson entering the lineup & Burakovsky being scratched. #Sens #yow

[Aaron Portzline @Aportzline]

#CBJ coach Rick Bowness just slammed his stick against the wall while he barked about a half-assed practice drill.

I know people think Bowness has been too tough on these guys. But four blowout losses in eight games and a shameful showing on Tuesday vs #Leafs … not good enough.

[Mark Masters @markhmasters]

Jim Hiller: "I thought Rielly, in the second period, those two plays he made, that was vintage Morgan. Up in the play, good play, tape-to-tape pass, skating, joining, so I was really happy for him on those two plays because that's his game offensively ... Good night for him"

[Toronto Maple Leafs @MapleLeafs]

YOU RIELLY NEED TO SEE THIS PASS 😖

[Mark Masters @markhmasters]

Easton Cowan on first career shorthanded goal in NHL:

"I had a decent shot there. I think the goalie was favouring Willy, which I probably would too (🙂). So, yeah, I just picked my spot so felt good."

@BarDown

[Toronto Maple Leafs @MapleLeafs]

YEEHAW FOR THE PK EH 🤠

[Mark Masters @markhmasters]

Did Fantilli surprise Marchenko with hit?

"A couple guys hit me. I take it as fine. It's not a surprise, but it's a good hit, actually & need to be better next time & heads up quicker or maybe shot quicker ... Happy to win. I can take so many hits if we win ... it's so nice"

[Mark Masters @markhmasters]

Kirill Marchenko: "It special night for sure ... I really happy to win this game. It so important for me"

on being booed by Columbus fans: "It's fine. I be ready for that. I can't control that. I appreciate all fans whose been here when I played ..."

Jim Hiller on Easton Cowan: "I can't say enough good things about him, honestly. Like, he's exceeded my expectations & I had high expectations for him."

@BarDown

[Mark Masters @markhmasters]

Jim Hiller says Jake McCabe held out as a precaution after getting high sticked around eye: "I bumped into him, seems to be doing OK"

Marshall Rifai: "Looks like it wasn't as bad as we originally thought, you know, that was scary for a second"
