Kevin Gibson: On the Leafs at 4Nations |

Four Nations Face-Off starts tonight. Let's look at our Leafs participation in the tournament. Nylander vs Marner tonight.
What I find funny/interesting is Saturday night, Matthews & Brady Tkachuk against Marner & Marchand, who gets the bigger non-appreciation from Habs fans at the Bell Centre?
Finland is the only nation without a Toronto player on their roster. Probably because there is no one from Finland on the Leafs squad.
In 20 career games in Montreal, Marner has one goal to go along with 16 assists. Nylander on the other side of the ice has 7 goals in 19 games on Bell Centre frozen pond.
Sweden hasn't announced who's starting in net for them tonight (at press time). Shocked if it isn't Gustavsson.
His last 10 starts he's 4-5-0 with a 3.85GAA, .889SV% including a 3-1 win in that span in Toronto where he made 32 saves on January 29. Nylander had the Leafs lone goal.
