Keys to Winning against Arizona:
- Attack the Defence
- Young defence and a lot of injuries on the backend. Forecheck hard and furious
- William Nylander
- It’s time for the scoring drought to end. If it happens it’s going to be now
- Powerplay
- Been struggling for a while. Gotta get it going again to make the Leafs dangerous
