The Maple Leafs improved to 3-1 and have now scored a power-play goal in each game

. Andersen, who allowed nine goals on 56 shots in his first two starts, improved to 10-0-2 in his career against Winnipeg.A tribute to the late Martin Luther King Jr. was held before the puck dropped – it was Martin Luther King Day in the United States – and players wore decals to honour Willie O’Ree, the New Brunswicker who became the NHL’s first Black player 63 years earlier while with the Boston Bruins.

The Jets played without sharp-shooting right wing Patrik Laine, who was unavailable due to an upper body injury. The 22-year-old had 138 goals over his first four seasons but left practice on Sunday and tried to skate Monday morning before determining he could not play. “We wanted to give him last week to give him a chance to watch some games and be in more meetings and get a better feel for things,” Keefe said earlier Monday. “Here now, we don’t want too much time to elapse before we get him in a game. We want to try to get a feel for how he can compete in the league and give him a chance to do that.”

Maple Leafs' Andersen quells outside concern with stellar game vs. JetsAll it took was for Frederik Andersen and Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe to acknowledge that the goaltender was not at his best during Friday’s loss in Ottawa for controversy to waft through the air. Presumably, now, that talk should disappear as quickly as it arrived. reporterchris No he hasn't and this is the problem with Toronto media reporterchris I won't be happy with him till he looks like that in a game 6 or 7 in a playoff series...... In round 2 or 3. ZERO 4 SIX. I'm sorry I have no confidence that the man can deal with pressure. reporterchris It’s never been about Anderson, it’s the team in front of him. He’s an excellent goalie, I feel for him.
