William Nylander scored twice and Martin Jones stopped all 31 shots he faced to lead the Toronto Maple Leafs to a 3-0 win against the Los Angeles Kings.

not a leafs fan but Nylander is great to watch.
His skating & puck carrying style is also quite unique. You can tell it's Nylander from afar just by recognising skating posture & speed. Example 2:15
Kaizoku ou ni orewa naru
So we both have Jones and Quick, 2 goalies that are supposed to be down and out, having insane runs. That wasn’t on my bingo card this year
Apparently it was never the goalies, the Kings are the problem
Yes indeed! They went spending cash on offence not defence! It might cost them! We will see if that manifests!
Jones is NOT having an insane run wtf?
@@bombkita I mean by wins no, but his save percentage is .926 which is pretty nuts for a goalie that's supposed to be on their way out of the league.
Oh god you are a casual and don't understand statistics. He has NINE games played of course his stats look good, learn about sample size bud. Im sure most the goalies in the league would look great with only a sample size of NINE.@@shawnpitman876
Man, Jones was so good. He had to do some very key and hard defenses, and he deserved that shutout. Also, who would say that the Leafs would play this well defensively against one of the best defensive teams in the league at the moment? Hope the team keeps it up, because that was a very physical game and the buds kept it up. Hope Benoit didn't get his hand too hurt and comes back no problem. He has been super good, solid and a good addition to the defense of the team. Ggs Kings
Now, the Leafs *were* great defensively, but LA didn’t want this game at all. They are horrendous at home. I’m sure they don’t have the worst home record, but in terms of on-ice play, I’d say they’re the worst. Never really challenged Toronto at all. The Leafs deserved this win every step of the way.
Remember, its the Leafs. They beat the good teams and lose to the bad teams. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if they lost to Anaheim and San Jose.
I actually predicted the Leafs would win, mostly because usually what the Leafs do makes no sense. How will they handle the back-to-backs against Anaheim and San Jose? Which is more Leafy? Losing to San Jose but perhaps beating an improved Anaheim team? Losing both? Or suddenly going 3-0 in California? Nylander looked like himself again. Even the top line despite not scoring were dangerous.
It’s the perfect time for him to prove himself and hang on to this job .. He’s been to the finals he’s a pretty calm guy which is perfect for the playoffs so … the vibes are good
they are 7-7-4 at home. Which is one more win than Anaheim and San Jose and the same amount of wins at home as Chicago. You are right not the worst home record but pretty darn close lol@@TheGreyCrayon
Jones is an absolute ninja
And then when he losses you guys will say how horrible he is.
lol@@NotaGabeItch
@@NotaGabeItch its how you lose thats the issue. Sammy flopping like a fish is everybodys issue 😅
Martin Jones with another shutout
Bertuzzi absolutely won the game for the leafs here. Just steady, directed effort in forechecking and good vision to get it to the open man. They need all or most of their wingers to be this way.
I took note too, great forechecking and kept his legs going.
Bertuzzi plays every game the same way, always moving, digging in the corners, chasing the puck. Never slows down or cheaps out or floats.
Nylander also decided to skate and compete tonight instead of floating out in the neutral zone waiting for a breakaway pass.
30th goosey for Jonesy and 50 points for Willie! 💙
Marty shut the door and Benny dropped the gloves!!
Bertuzzi's energy was really impressive.
This game brought back memories of watching hockey night in Canada on the old block and white tv
I am very proud of Toronto Maple Leafs Winning the Game
93 WCF
Wow, with a good goalie its like we can actually win games
We dont even need a good goalie, we just an average goalie and the defense not doing stupid things. Tonight they had SOME common sense and good plays, and jones was perfect, while our offense played great. If we played like this every night we'd be top 5.
Jones was supposed to be our 3rd string goalie, idk what changed but he’s playing unreal
the goalie makes a difference for sure but could you not see the difference in the play of the rest of the team? every skating and battling for the puck on every play... they played in synch like a team rather than the usual disorganized mess.
Yeah if your goalie gets a shutout you tend to win games. Who'd have thunk it?
30th shutout . Wow 👏 what a courier! Thanks for saving the leafs season mr Jones.
it wasnt just him. the whole team played completely different than usual.
Best full Leaf game of the year. Go Leafs Go!
Imagine this being your best game of the year, that's just sad
@@maahes7139It's the first game of the year, of course it's the best game of the year LMAO
@@maahes7139a 3-0 win on the road against one of the best teams in the league is a pretty good game, stay hating 😂😂
@maahes7139 it's their first game of 2024 you negative IQ dumbass 😂. Of course it's their best game of the year
@@peacebringer8👍🏼😂🇨🇦
Jones proving to everyone he’s still a solid nhl goalie
bertuzzi without a glove getting an assist, what a beaut
The real test on this cali trip is against Anaheim and San Jose. We all know the leafs show up against the good teams but then proceed to poop the bed against the bad ones. We'll see how they play tonight against the Ducks.
Really liking Benoit, finally bringing some sandpaper to this team
those helmets are ridiculous.
They're so corny it's not even funny
Nylander's value keeps going up. He's going to be a great fit in Vegas.
Stick to playing bass.
Great play on both sides, nice to see leafs playing likes new and improved team. Thanks sportsnet for starting to include the fights in the highlights too!
Defensively still need to help out Jones more, but boys were buzzing. Matthews flying around like he was I’m surprised he didn’t somehow find the scoresheet, but Willy quietly racking up the points as he has all season 👏🏽👏🏽
It's because Nylander is much more of a puck hog and he doesn't help defensively, like the other towards do. I'm glad he's scoring but I'm not liking how he's doing it
Bertuzzis effort was immaculate.
I’m liking Benoit’s game more and more.
William Nylander and the Toronto Maple Leafs win over Anze Kopitar and the Los Angeles Kings 🏒🔵⚪🇨🇦🍁 Toronto Maple Leafs went up to 18-10-7, while the Los Angeles Kings dropped to 20-9-5
Браво! Молодцы! 👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
I feel so bad for Kings that they have to wear those ridiculous helmets.
Yes, worse than the yellow ones the Kings wore in the 70s with purple uniforms
Easier to watch yourself cry in defeat
At least aliens can't score on them
love those helmets!
@@RedroomStudios You must like the PWHL too.
Bruh I swear I get PTSD (Post Traumatic Samsonov Disorder) whenever the puck is within 2 meters of the Leafs net at this point ☠️☠️☠️
lol
Tell me about it! 😬
well said lol.. mine starts at the blue line
На таком уровне Короли шли очень долго, конечно же травмы ключевых игроков дают, всё же со временем, о себе знать. Но и Торонто имеет очень сильный состав, не нужно забывать об этом, у них нет такой стабильности как у Королей, но всё таки эта команда которая способна обыграть любую команду их потенциал до сих пор не известен до конца. Конечно же при пустом лазарете ЛА можно назвать фаворитом в серии поединков с Торонто, но только по игре, по составу индивидуальному с Торонто тяжело кому либо тягаться
Knew LA would step it up after that first period, and they did - nice to see the buds lock it down and put up a few timely goals. GG LA
Excellent goal tending from Jones and any win against LA kings is a great game
Just the fact that they lost so many games using Samsonov over and over and over again is so disappointing for Leafs fans. Jones is looking like a playoff goalie already
Well, get ready because Samsonov is playing tomorrow
@@somekindofhate1311 I just saw that after I posted the reply
@@jamiemason2069 you living under a rock? Samsonov was placed on waivers, he ain't playing tomorrow, it's most likely Dennis Hildeby playing tomorrow unless they feel comfortable playing Jones back to back which is highly unlikely.
Jones is looking solid, but the leafs just seem to play more responsibly in front of him for whatever reason. We need to see a lot more from him to see what the leafs really have.
Highly unlikely Jones is the starter for the playoffs unless he plays like this every night and Woll comes back playing noticeably worse than his first 15 (where he put in a top 10 performance at the time of his 15th start). That said a dependable backup is a huge plus and allows the team to have some more confidence. Hope to see Hildeby tomorrow. It's a back to back and they won this game so I see no reason not to give the kid a shot, just to see how he does. Against the Ducks too, debatably one of the worst in the league so if he's a bit shaky getting started they should be okay.
Bertz was amazing tonight. Beaut backhander goal by Jankrooook!
11 amazing
Nice one. Finally back on the winning side and without eating a bunch of goals against. Go Leafs go
jones looks much calmer in net 👍🏻👍🏻
I love the chrome helmets. Awesome idea.
NIce seeing Willie hustle on an open net goal..
Oho ooo did a good job guys, awesome goalie though, right on guys, 👏👏💙💙💙👍👍
It's 2024, time to start uploading in 1080p guys...
great games motor leafs Jones great job great defence
Trevor Moore with 17 G ? What a mistake giving him away.. he was well liked in Toronto actually.. just needed more patience
LA kings same with Vilardi
@@Troll-lw9fi But you got yourself a superstar in Douchebois
I think lost in this win was Matthews' great play. He came out swinging, and I love to see that from him.
Jones, Nylander👏👏👏
I'm actually getting tired of Nylander. I get that it's his contract year but he shoots often when he should pass, just to get his numbers up to get a better contract. More often then not he doesn't score, so pass it to someone that can. Just like every break,the lead guy is always Nylander because he doesn't help on the d side like every other player does. He hates around the blue line or center I've waiting for a pass. I've seen him helping out once in many, many games. He's competing with Matthews for number 1 spot, which doesn't help the team overall.
@@jeffreycairns767 Hard disagree on this one. Nylander used to pass so much and started shooting more last season. Since then you can also clearly see the improvement in his goal scoring.
@@oskforalltid I get that but he often has a man open but will take the shot anyways despite the fact that 1. It rarely hits the net, and 2. They often lose possession. Matthews can be just as much of a hog but atleast he scores alot and his defensive play is leaps and bounds above Nylander's. Tonight's 6 on 4/5 is the first time I've seen Nylander actually doing something if value in his own end. He's usually just skating around as close to center as possible, while still technically in his own end, wait for a pass to break out. Anytime you see 1 Leaf ahead of the rest, it's always Nylander, and it's not because he's that fast. I'm not saying he's not good but his contract seems to be clouding his judgement quite often. If he can keep his points up high, especially his goals, he can demand atleast what Marner is getting despite the fact he's not the same kind of player and is not worth that. The closer he gets to a new contract the better player he becomes, but look what happened last time. They don't need that again. If I were Tre, I'd be seeing what he's actually looking for. If it's too high, I'd be looking into trading him for a nice return.
some hall of fame bad takes here, youve outdone yourself@@jeffreycairns767
Nylander is twice the player Marner is and is a playoff performer. Nylander should get quite abit more than Marner if it was based on TRUE value. but Marner is so incredibly overpaid that it's probably not gonna happen. I'd argue right now that Nylander is actually the nr 1 of the leafs and not Matthews. Matthews still scores goals but Nylander is legit magic on ice every night almost. If i had only had enough money to pay to see ONE player play, i'd pay to see Nylander ahead of any other Leafs player.@@jeffreycairns767
Martin Jones!
What a great one! Thanks! 👍
Jones with 30 career shut outs! Man that's a good number.
Jones really good! SO much better than Samsonov. Great win for the Leafs!
Never believed that the Leafs were truly the underdogs to the Kings. the Leafs should be the Stanley Cup winner if they remain injury free. the way the Leafs is playing hockey, it almost cannot be studied by their opponents
9:10 - These two fans got rink side seats, yet experience a live fight occurring right in front of them by watching in on their phones.
Yes welcome to the new generation of phone zombies. They all need to film to feel validated by posting it to their social media for some dopamine hits. It's pathetic. Go to a concert and stand in the back. All you see is a sea of phones all recording the same washed out audio 😂
At least they're filming the fight and not watching TikToks
It’s almost like having a goalie that can make a few decent saves gives the team some confidence and they wind up playing better as a team. Weird! Haha
Red Alert: the Leafs can forecheck, the Leafs can forecheck, the Leafs can forecheck. If the buds can finally see this is the best way to win big games, they gotta make this play style a habit. Bertuzzi was notorious in Kings’ zone, the defense especially Benoit had an amazing game.
exactly... that strategy as well as having the energy level and determination to make it work like they did last night.
It's pretty clear that Samsonov is out of the mix for quite some time, and Woll is still a couple months away from getting back in the line up. So who would have thought the Leafs would end up with Jones and Hildeby as their goaltenders. But Johns was obviously an absolute steal for the Leafs.
Wonder why these highlights are only uploaded in 720p instead of 1080p? Leafs looked the most put together they have all season last night IMO.
with the amount of highlights each day.. phew. Would be 2 days old if waiting for 4K 😂
Jones looks solid
Good game! 👍

Internet like many other things are actually going backwards. The "current year" trope was ridiculous in the first place, but now it's Benjamin Button level territory.
What Sweed night 😂
It’s nice to see the leafs not blow another lead!
Not long ago the majority of the Leafs fanbase wanted Nylander traded...funny how things work out...
No they didn't.
Gotta stick to the White and Blue whenever I see these Jerseys just doesn't feel the same.
Nice to have a goalie in nets for us. That HAS been a huge problem.
the whole team played 10 times better though as well. everyone skating and battling on every play. makes a big difference when Willy comes back in his own end to win puck battles rather than waiting out at center ice for a breakaway pass.
Imagine the Leafs just played this hard all the time. They could stick me in net and win like this
Not true, you'd probably be worse than even Samsonov, and they got rid of him and put in Jones for a reason. Jones made many key saves tonight, do not disrespect his contribution to that win.
@@shawnpitman876 Yeah, Jones was solid tonight.
The Leafs need sun glasses for the reflections off the LA helmets!
Some nights after watching the Leafs , I wonder how they can ever lose a game ? But they will !
Is it just me, or is the gamma correction or contrast turned way down on this broadcast? Perhaps from a combination of the dark alternate Toronto jerseys or the stupid shiny L.A. helmets? I think in about 3 years all teams will abandon their shiny helmets, and then people will look back on clips from this brief "shiny helmet" era and laugh at how stupid they looked 😀
I like seeing Trevor Moore having some success. Like that kid. Hard worker. Still remember that big hit on Chara in the playoffs a few years ago, a guy 2' taller and 100 lbs heavier.
Jones played great. Now I'm looking forward to seeing the 6'7 behemoth Hildeby play tonight against Anaheim
Hilde-beast!
Not sure he will play tonight……jones is hot….and didnt have to stand on his head last night, so I’d think go with the hot goalie, and not risk any points that should be “gimmes”
@niagarajoe4402 I am assuming he will play, teams rarely play their starter for back to back games.
@@dutchcanuck11 when it’s a goalie whose never played a game and jones didn’t have a heavy work load lately….right after the break, and wasn’t a crazy game last night….wouldn’t surprise me at all If jones plays all 3 in cali
@niagarajoe4402 Going by Sportsnet the probable starter is Hildeby so here's hoping. I wouldn't be bad if Jones started but it would nice to see what is coming down the pipeline.
Go Leafs!
Why we blew a third of the season with Jones rotting in the A is beyond me.....don't mention cap space because moves can always be made.
go kings go !
Jones gets ANOTHER Shutout W! They started playing on Jan. 2, but it was so late that the game ended on the 3rd, which is my birthday! LET’S GO! Birthday win! 🎉

Who says that honestly? I'm a Leafs fan and I never come up with that, even when they are doing great. Will talk about a parade the day they will win the cup (If they ever win it during my lifetime).
Wow, the Leafs actually have a goalie. 😊
Some bonehead defensive plays by la and Toronto played a full 60. GG 😊
at 3 mins you see Morgan reiley chasing the wrong attacker and leaves his attacker open behind him. This is such a rookie mistake, not even in tripple A hockey they do that. The coach needs to teach them this. Chasing the puck, like a few squirrels going after a nut.
Самсонова уже выставили на драфт отказов и сразу игра пошла 😂
Lol i told you to get rid of the silver helmets. It's not a good look when you get CRUSHED again and again...
The Leafs could see who was behind!!
Awful helmets haha
Sorta brings them into the realm of roller derby. They could put lights on the player's helmets and the play would determine what color they flash. They need to be careful.
Those chrome helmets are the absolute WORST. You deserve to lose wearing lids like those.
Vegas has the same but in gold. Stupid to the nth degree!

Nothing ground breaking with your critique except I didn't realize the Leafs changed their name to Peafs...21-11 has been a trend if you were astute you would have noticed that very often the Peafs out shoot the opposition in the 1st period but then regularly run out of steam in the 2nd and surly the 3rd...PP's part of the game my friend if you can't do the time don't do the crime...a few missed calls could be your perception but no one else's depends who you cheer for...me I don't cheer for anyone in particular I just like hockey....hero worship isn't part of my makeup. And if I did cheer for any one team it wouldn't be the Peafs. yuk yuk
Best leaf’s jerseys out
Leafs should try and get Connor Ingram from Arizona
There's something about those silver helmets that just makes you want to score on them and punch them and all that great hockey stuff. They've become like the Golden Knights: the team that everyone wants to see lose just cuz. Like if Dennis Rodman was a hockey team.
That was a much better Leafs game. Leafs shut out the Kings and the 3 game losing streak is over. Thank lord. At least I'll get a good night's rest after this Leafs 3-0 win over the LA Kings. LA, this is what you get for ruining Halloween. Let's go Leafs!
