The Leafs: not fun to watch right now!

On a five game skid, they take on the Vegas Golden Knights way past my bedtime. Let's see if any of us make it through tonight's game.

<h3>Pierre Engvall makes his debut</h3>
Daddy Long Neck is in.

He's 23, he's from Sweden, he has 16 points in 15 AHL games with the Marlies this year, and he won a Calder Cup in 2018.

This has been fun facts with Pierre Engvall!
<h3>Ilya Mikheyev's second November point?</h3>
Mikheyev has just one point in November after 10 in October. Not a math major or someone who's taken it in years, but that seems like a problem, to me.
<h3>Frederik Andersen</h3>
While the Leafs have yet to win with a backup in net this year, they've also gotten points in 13 of Frederik Andersen's 16 games. That's a positive to build on in what has been a weird year. And after a tough start to the year, Andersen has recovered enough to now sport a .912 save percentage.
<h3>Max Pacioretty shoots a lot</h3>
He has 90 shots on goal this year, which just seems like a lot. That's more than Auston Matthews in the same amount of games.
<h3>Just win, baby</h3>
If the Leafs don't win tonight, it will be their longest losing streak in quite some time. Formalities don't matter, because they simply haven't been good enough. Git'r'done.
