The Maple Leafs are relying on their goaltender and one of their rookies.
Toronto beat Washington 4-2 on Saturday night, improving to 8-4-1 in November, and the team was once again propelled by Frederik Andersen and Mitch Marner.
Andersen won his seventh game this month, holding the opposition to two goals or fewer for the seventh time in November, and fourth time in a row. He's been stellar over the past two weeks:
| Opponent | GA | SV% | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capitals | 2 | .943 | W |
| Hurricanes | 2 | .931 | L |
| Canadiens | 2 | .931 | L |
| Panthers | 1 | .963 | W |
| Predators | 2 | .941 | W |
Marner, meanwhile, had two assists, giving him six goals and six assists in 12 games in November. The 19-year-old is now tied with Patrik Laine for the NHL lead in scoring among rookies with 18 points.
