The newly minted trio of Max Pacioretty, Tavares, and William Nylander were outstanding combining for four goals and five helpers on the night.

For what it’s worth, the Leafs have now won 6 straight games against the Jets. Also, Connor Hellebuyck is now a pedestrian 7-10-3 in his career against Toronto with a 3.16 goals against average and 0.904 save percentage. He’s one of the best goalies on the planet, and without question, the Leafs seem to have his number. You love to see it!</p>

He’s played one game this season.</p>
