Toronto sniper wanted more ice time and it pays off against Seattle
Toronto Maple Leafs' William Nylander, left, and Seattle Kraken's Will Borgen battle for the puck in Toronto on Oct. 31.’ 4-1 win over the Seattle Kraken on Thursday, William Nylander will be hoping his head coach has his eyes and ears wide open.
“I don’t focus on ice time so much,” Berube said. “I mean, I get Willy out there quite a bit, a lot of key situations, obviously. But at the same time, I have said this all along, we want to be a good team, everybody needs to be involved.” However, hoping to get back to their dressing room with less than 10 seconds remaining in a goalless first period, the Kraken carelessly iced the puck.Auston Matthews beat Chandler Stephenson on the resulting faceoff, slid the puck across the crease to Marner, who hoodwinked Joey Daccord in the Seattle goal by one-timing it back across the doorstep for Matthew Knies to net his sixth goal of the season with 4.7 seconds remaining.
Eeli Tolvanen broke Joseph Woll’s shutout bid with 3:28 to go, cashing in on a pass from Ryker Evans with Daccord on the bench for an extra skater. But Matthews then took advantage of that empty net, banking the puck off the boards from inside his own half to notch his fifth of the season.
