2nd best record in the league, 2nd best goal differential in the league, with Auston missing half the games and Willy missing most of them.
not bad.
And about that one team ahead of them:
Vs Top-10 teams (pts%)
TBL: 9gms, 4-4-1, .500pts%, +.33gdiff
TOR: 9gms, 7-2-0, .778pts%, +.89gdiff
So the leafs have been much better against the good teams.
Vs Bottom-10
TBL: 16gms, 13-3-0, .813pts%, +1.31gdiff
TOR: 11gms, 7-2-2, .727pts%, +1.73gdiff
Both teams have been similar against the bottom teams (separated only by some OT/SO results), except TBay has had 5 more games against the weak teams than Toronto has had.
