Scoring is all I want them to do.
So really, mission accomplished.
I'll take scoring over zone time with no contribution on the scoresheet.
I know some of you want the style points and advanced stat confirmation just as much as the results, but when Toronto is chasing the whole game, playing protect the lead is a natural side effect of that.
Not every night is going to be a 4-1 rout where we suffocate the opponent in waves until they concede. Particularly not against the top team in the division.
Even if you're a really good team, this is the kind of game you're going to expect to be playing against a team with Toronto's depth that is desperate to get back on track. I don't think it would be a cakewalk for any team.
