As far as shots go, the Leafs D is pretty good, but they under perform against playoff teams that they have faced (Boston, Calgary, Winnipeg, Pittsburgh, and Montreal). They allow almost 34 shots against per game. After the first game vs the Habs, the TOR defense is blocking 24.436% of opponents shot attempts. The opposition is blocking in that span 32.526% of shot attempts. Which either the offense isn't taking quality shots, or the defense isn't willing to get in front of the puck. Also, it's worth noting that they have not played 7 of the other nine top ten teams including Nashville and Tampa. The sample size is too small to make any judgements yet. Check in again in the New Year.
