"Iffy defense The three goals on 18 shots from Anthony Stolarz over two periods of play might seem a bit concerning. Yes, it was a preseason game for the Maple Leafs' starting netminder. But the goals really weren't entirely his fault. The first goal came during a 4-on-4 sequence in which Nick Robertson failed to pick up his man on the play. That failed coverage allowed Newhook to sneak one past Stolarz to open the scoring."
"In the end, the Maple Leafs fell 4-2 on home ice. The Maple Leafs got a power play from John Tavares in the second, and a tally from William Nylander late in the game. The Canadiens, meanwhile, got two power play tallies, one from Riley Kidney and the other from Lane Hutson. Alex Newhook opened the scoring in the first period, with Sean Farrell adding another in the third to seal the victory."
