Hey, at least the Leafs outshot their opponents. That’s something, right? This month, the Leafs have been shut out twice, kept to one goal in a game on two different occasions and have undergone a coaching change.
The Leafs never went 4 straight games holding opponents under 30 shots during Randy Carlyle era. Have already done so to start Horachek era.

David Booth left the game in the third period, and didn’t appear to be in good shape as he headed to the dressing room.
David Booth looking very woozy as he's helped to #leafs dressing room. That's a cause for huge concern given his concussion history.

Peter Horachek gives no update on Booth. Couldn't say if he had concussion test. Komarov sits again tomorrow though.

The frustration of Leafs fans appears to have reached out west now, too.
Someone just tossed a Leafs jersey onto the ice. Think it was one. It's come to that.
