Max Domi has been slotting into the first-line center role without Matthews in the lineup but could drop back down to the third line or shift to wing when Matthews returns.

Impact Knies set up a William Nylander tally in the third period. Knies also had a goal overturned in the contest. The 22-year-old winger has four points over his last five contests and continues to see top-line usage and power-play time. He's up to seven goals, four assists, 35 shots on net, 43 hits and eight PIM over 18 games in what's shaping up to be a breakout campaign.

Pontus Holmberg - Finds assist in overtime win Holmberg logged an assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
Impact The helper was Holmberg's first point since Oct. 10, a span of 13 scoreless appearances. The 25-year-old has been an occasional healthy scratch this season and is unlikely to see anything more than a bottom-six role. He has two assists, 15 shots on net, 10 blocked shots, 15 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 16 outings.
NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Bobby McMann - Finds twine Wednesday McMann scored a goal on eight shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
Impact The goal ended an 11-game point drought for McMann, who had 26 shots on net and 17 hits in that span. The 28-year-old forward started the year well, and it's a positive he's stayed in the lineup even amid a deep slump. He has four goals, one assist, 44 shots on net, 30 hits, six PIM and a plus-3 rating over 17 contests in a middle-six role.

John Tavares - Two points including GWG Tavares scored the overtime winner and added an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 victory over the Capitals.
Impact With less than a minute left in the extra frame, Joseph Woll made a huge stop on an Alex Ovechkin one-timer, and Mitch Marner cleared the rebound down the ice. Tavares got to the puck first and made no mistake, slipping it between Logan Thompson's legs as he cut across the front of the Washington net. The 34-year-old center has nine goals on the season, and three of them have been game-winners. Tavares has produced four multi-point performances in the last nine contests, racking up seven goals and 10 points over that stretch.

William Nylander - Two-point effort Wednesday Nylander produced an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
Impact Both points came in the final five minutes of the third period as the Maple Leafs rallied from a 3-1 deficit. Nylander has delivered five multi-point performances in the last nine games, and on the season he's piled up an impressive 12 goals and 20 points in 18 contests as he hunts for his third straight 40-goal campaign.

Mitch Marner - Two points in OT win Marner scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
Impact After scoring the tying goal inside the final minute of the third period, Marner sprung John Tavares for a clean breakaway in the final minute of OT that produced the game-winner. Marner has five multi-point performances in the last 10 games, a stretch in which he's racked up four goals and 15 points -- including two goals and five helpers on the power play.

Joseph Woll - Rallies for OT win Woll turned aside 24 shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
Impact The Leafs were down 3-1 heading into the third period, but Woll shut the door as his team mounted a comeback, and the 26-year-old goalie was rewarded when John Tavares converted a breakaway in OT. Woll has alternated starts with Anthony Stolarz over the last week as Toronto twice played on consecutive nights, but it's not clear if the team is deploying a true timeshare between the pipes or if Woll will settle in as the backup. Through his first five appearances in 2024-25, Woll has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.40 GAA and .902 save percentage.
