The Leafs so far this season:
Seven games played (and I use that term loosely), with: 13 GF and 23 GA for the third worst goal differential in the NHL. They have two wins, for a percentage of .357, which is just inside the bottom ten teams. Somehow Ottawa and Montréal have been worse, so they are sixth in the Atlantic.
1. It’s only week three of the season
Tampa Bay is almost as bad with a win % of .417 and only three wins. However:
They can put in their backup and shrug off a loss to the Sabres.
