TORONTO – Chris Tanev’s willingness to put his body on the line was well-known long before he joined the Maple Leafs .
The 34-year-old needed help off the ice and again down the tunnel to the Leafs’ locker room. Tanev didn’t initially come out to start the third, but was soon back on the bench. “He’s been unbelievable,” Leafs captain Auston Matthews said. “Hopefully it’s nothing serious and he’s good to go.”Fellow defenceman Oliver Ekman-Larsson — another off-season addition — said it was no surprise to see Tanev back in the action.
Toronto’s power play had some life in Wednesday’s 6-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings with two goals on four opportunities after starting the season 0-for-9, but was unable to find the range on three chances against New York.A disconnected man advantage with under 10 minutes to go Saturday trailing New York by a goal was an especially sore point for a unit still finding its way under assistant coach Marc Savard.
