And just like that, almost in a blink, the good tidings and cheer earned by the Pittsburgh Penguins for their comeback win over the Columbus Blue Jackets became shock and embarrassment as the Toronto Maple Leafs dismantled them at PPG Paints Arena. We've got a full analysis, and it's not kind.
Elsewhere in the Daily, an update on the Edmonton Oilers goalie situation and the NHL trade rumors that have engulfed it. Could the Philadelphia Flyers become a player in the Quinn Hughes talk? The Islanders lost Kyle Palmieri for the rest of the regular season, at least. And there are conflicting reports on what the Ottawa Senators would like to do on the trade block.
