Craig Berube reveals the status of Chris Tanev
Head coach Craig Berube spoke to the media, where he noted that Tanev is currently in a hospital in Philadelphia, receiving tests.
However, there is some good news here, as the defenseman is reportedly walking around and is responsive.
In fact, there is even a chance that Tanev flies back with the team. That would be a major development and some good news.
Despite all of this, tonight was a good one for the Maple Leafs as they defeated the Flyers by a score of 5-2.
They got a goal from
Auston Matthews, and
Easton Cowan was even able to score the first goal of his career, which was pretty cool to see.
Only time will tell whether or not the Leafs can keep this momentum going on Monday when they take on the Pittsburgh Penguins.
With this win, the team improves to 6-5-1 on the season. They need to keep winning to secure some much-needed momentum.
