Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Snags 27th goal of season
John Tavares scored his 27th goal of the season Saturday in a 5-4 overtime loss to Detroit.Tavares has three goals in his last two games after putting up just one in his previous 10. His overall production has dropped off a bit (63 points in 78 games), but those 27 goals are right in line with his other seasons in Toronto. Tavares' shooting percentage (9.9) is well below his career mark of 12.8, so that bears watching heading into 2024-25, but he'll also be 34 years old by the start of next season and may have lost a step.

Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Notches one of each Saturday
John Tavares scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 5-4 shootout loss to Carolina.Tavares may not have great foot speed, but he managed to break in all alone on Pyotr Kochetkov after taking a stretch pass from T.J. Brodie, and he went roof. Tavares also delivered a perfect one-timer set-up to Nick Robertson in the middle frame. His scoring pace has slowed this season, and it was his first multi-point performance in 11 games, but the Toronto captain remains a reliable offensive producer. He only needs two more points for his 14th 50-point campaign.

Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Offense slowing, but getting goals
John Tavares scored a goal in a 3-2 win over Montreal on Saturday.Tavares scored the go-ahead goal with 6:46 remaining in the third period. He punched the puck over the goal line from the left edge of the crease after battling for position with Tanner Pearson. It was Tavares' 20th goal of the season, which marks the 14th time in 15 seasons that he's hit that plateau. He came out of the blocks fast after the All-Star break, picking up five points in two games, but Tavares only has five goals and six points over the past 13 outings. The goals are great, but at his current pace, he'll deliver the lowest point total of his career outside the COVID-19-shortened season and an injury-shortened campaign with the Islanders.

Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Scores late goal in loss
John Tavares tallied late in the game to get Toronto on the board, but it wasn't enough to get a win as the Bruins took a 4-1 victory Monday.That's Tavares' 19th goal of the season and his fourth in the last seven games. He doesn't look like he'll come anywhere close to the 36-goal, 80-point campaign he posted last season. He's tied with Morgan Rielly for fourth on the team in points, but he's a long way back from Auston Matthews, William Nylander, and Mitchell Marner. It may be time to think of the team as having three dynamic forwards instead of four, at least until Tavares proves otherwise.
