After defeating the Golden Knights in overtime last night, the Leafs have now won three games in a row, and continue to be undefeated in November! October is a garbage month, and November is near-perfection. The turn of the calendar has made the results of the games - not exactly the games themselves - be almost everything we wanted. Yes, there has been overtime and shootouts, but pobody’s nerfect, eh? In fact, things are so good now.... > Leafs are now on pace for more points than last season. And are up to 11th best record in the NHL. > > — James Mirtle (@mirtle) [November 8, 2019](https://twitter.com/mirtle/status/1192646505338982400?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) As long as they’re on pace for it, it’s good. November has been home to a lot of good news for the Leafs. Travis Dermott is back. John Tavares is back. Zach Hyman is almost back and ready to cause some roster issues...

Assists to Quinton Byfield and Tyler Tucker. 3-0 OHL. [pic.twitter.com/4Adfs09DT6](https://t.co/4Adfs09DT6?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — 🤸🏻‍♀️Lauren Kelly🏌🏻‍♀️ (@laurkelly24) [November 8, 2019](https://twitter.com/laurkelly24/status/1192612400350060545?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Quinton Byfield was probably the best player in last night’s OHL vs Russia game for the CHL/Russia Super Series. Usually this game is a test for players vying for spots on the World Juniors team, but Byfield is 17 and eligible for the draft. He’s going to be something big. Event games like this are a blast to attend, and if you can get out to Hamilton for the CHL Top Prospects game, you can see Byfield do things like that as well. Think of it as a an All-Star Game where the players give a crap. It’s great. Also last night, the Avalanche scored six goals in eight minutes against the Predators: Finally, if you’re home or can stream video at work, the Buffalo Sabres take on the Tampa Bay Lightning at 2PM Eastern today. They’re both playing in Stockholm as part of the NHL Global Series. Afternoon hockey, it’s great.
