Leafs beat the Flyers once again, 3-2 this time, at Wells Fargo. This game was a very haard fought one by both teams. Lots of physical play, and limited quality chances. The Flyers put on immense pressure towards the end, but the Leafs were able to sustain their lead. There is no way we would have been able to do this last year.
Kadri made two beauty plays to setup the 2nd and 3rd goals. He now goes back on top for team lead in scoring (17), and tied for team lead in assists (12). The scoring lead has been a revolving door between Kessel, JVR and Kadri. If Lupul and Fratt were healthy, they would've probably been in the mix too. It's great to have balanced scoring for a change.
Kadri has been a revelation this year. We knew the kid had skill, but I don't think anyone expected him to perform this well, this early. His vision in the offensive zone is just something else. Can't wait to see him centering Frattin and JVR/Lupul when they are healthy!
