Blue Jackets @ Leafs - Oct. 21st, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

I would genuinely like to know what the Leafs stats are in terms of giving up goals in the first five minutes vs. other teams. I'm very open to the possibility that they're nothing special in that regards but it sure seems like they do it a lot.
 
Marner doesn?t even bother trying. Just allows the puck to be taken away.  Again this all starts with the leafs inability to win faceoffs on the PP. 

These starts are fully without effort.

Nice one Marner, looked a bit unfocused, almost arrogant.

That?s how this team plays.  They assume they should just win by showing up.  They don?t work hard very often.
 
Wow.  Matthews getting owned on the draw.  Rest of the team a now show. 

Fully predictable too.
 
At least it's not 3-0, lol, I would have started Hutch in this game rather than vs Boston, but maybe Babs wants to see Hutch vs a great team.

That's not  good look from Andersen really on either of the goals.

Not sure what else he could have done on the first goal, maybe play a little less aggressive. But he read shot. The second one, yeah even if Matthews shouldn't have let his guy get to that point that puck still probably shouldn't have gotten through him.
 
I guess you can call out Andersen somewhat on both of those, but that's flat out unacceptable lack of effort on 16 & 34.
