Extrapolating a 3 game sample and jumping to conclusions. Great job!

If that’s the case, Matthews is the best goal scorer ever? What’s he on pace for?

Tons of teams have pretty bad defense on paper, but is the Leafs the worst on ice?

13 goals allowed in 3 games

For a contender yes.

Absolutely ....ng garbage and they've refused to do anything to fix it.

And it's not like they've played against elite teams to start.

Yesss this is the perfect early season hot take thread. Inject them right into my veins. Yes these 3 games are enough to say the Leafs defense is the worst in the league. Nailed it.

LOL, this thread started on the Leafs after they win, and not on the team that they just beat. Classic "we're unbiased, you guys are just victim players, leaf fans bring it on themselves" HF

It’s not the worst in the NHL but Frederik Andersen is a high end goaltender and he covered up a lot of their defensive woes last year. If he’s not able to perform at that level this year, they’ll fail to live up to their high expectations.

Last year, Toronto was 12th in goals allowed, which is way better than I thought.

Who did they lose from last year's defense? They weren't THIS bad on a nightly basis.

There's been some hype around that team and when they play like that it's hard to buy that hype.
