The Maple Leafs were thoroughly outplayed by the Senators, being outshot 40-23 in a game where they never seemed competitive. 'It was embarrassing to be honest with you,' Matthews told reporters. 'We have to have more pride in our play.'
With a record of 27 regulation wins to 24 regulation losses and nine overtime losses, Toronto has the worst goal differential (-15) in the Atlantic Division. Since the Olympic break, the Leafs have lost to the Lightning, Panthers, and Senators, suggesting a major roster overhaul may be coming at the trade deadline.
