Another NHL regular season is underway for the Toronto Maple Leafs. The have played their first two games of the season on back-to-back nights.

The Toronto Maple Leafs played their home opener Wednesday against Montreal.  They won that game and then headed to Ottawa to play the Senators in their home opener. Unfortunately, the  Leafs were not victorious on back-to-back nights.

There have been some good things happening early on for Toronto, but there have also been some bad things and even a few ugly things happening. Hopefully head coach Sheldon Keefe and his coaching staff can find a way to keep the good, while fixing the bad and ugly things.

The good news for Keefe is that it’s still early into the season. As bad or ugly as some things have been, there is plenty of time to correct them. Hopefully some of those things can be corrected in time for when Toronto hosts Ottawa on Saturday night.

The hometown fans will not want to see a repeat of Thursday’s performance. They want to see the Maple Leafs go 2-0-0 at home to start the season. Toronto will have to do it without Auston Matthews as he is still not activated to play. This is hopefully the final and only remaining game that he misses this season.
