The Toronto Maple Leafs finally get their first win of the season. The Leafs, now 1-7-1, managed to beat the Anaheim Ducks 6-3. It was a very rough game with a lot of cheap shots and fights leading to the Ducks spending a good deal of time in the penalty box allowing the leafs to score on 5 power-plays.
Niklas Hagman scored a hat trick. Jonas Gustavsson returned from a groin injury to make 25 saves. Toronto’s best defenceman, Tomas Kaberle, picked up 5 points with one goal and 4 assists. Even though Anaheim didn’t play well, they do have a lot of talent including Teemu Selanne, Scott Niedermayer, and Ryan Getzlaf.
