"Embarrassing is probably the right word to use from start to finish, top to bottom, not nearly good enough. Just a bad hockey game from our team. Collectively, it is probably one of the worst games since I have been here. It's hard to pinpoint one thing. I think it was all just disappointing."
Leafs Lose Despite Matthews' Best Efforts
Auston Matthews is easily the Leafs' best goal scorer and player, and he often can will the team to victory in his own right. However, this wasn't the case against the Sabres, as it looked like Matthews was doing everything in his power to right the ship in the beginning of the game.
