EDGE Analysis

After holding Toronto to one goal through the first two periods, Hofer surrendered a power-play tally to Auston Matthews 45 seconds into the third and a short-handed marker to William Nylander later in the frame before the Leafs added an empty-netter, sticking Hofer with the loss. It was the first start since Feb. 10 for the 23-year-old netminder, though he'd won his previous three outings, sporting a .929 save percentage in that span. Hofer falls to 10-9-0 with a .912 save percentage and 2.80 GAA while backing up Jordan Binnington this season.
