NHL Highlights | Red Wings vs. Maple Leafs | October 13, 2025

Thanks so much, guys. I got to keep my head up. 
The crowd is buzzing. I’m excited to be here. Dylan Lark and Austin Matthews on the draw. 
Sit back and enjoy your number two of Prime Monday Night Hockey. That was Detroit with 
a 6-3 win. This the second of four meetings. Matselli gave it away. Here’s Kane. Turned out 
by Stard. That’s Machelli there. And this is a big gap early on. Craig Maru said the biggest 
thing that him his team did was give the puck to Detroit. They created their own problems. How 
about this one? Patrick Kaden Hunt for 500. Picks this thing off. He does that. Waits in the weeds 
as good as anyone. What a save from Stallards to pass the stick of Stallars. Sher got to it. 
Here comes Austin Matthews. Three on two to the outside for Cowan. Back for Matthews off the 
pad. And the Leafs will get it out. Johansson off the boards. Near gave it away. Tamaris with 
a shot and Calvin took away the angle. The only thing that really matters the the right the 
wrong. How’s your team respond? A great response to the Detroit Wedings button as well pushed by 
Mthal and again as we reinforced earlier knocked it down there along the boards and it’s skated 
out by Nick Wah to the outside. Calarn broke a shot stopped by Talbet. The rebound in front 
Joshua handled down again for Talbet. Hey, it was that second period in particular that gave 
them fits, but it was plays like this that really got them into trouble. Here you go. Joshua springs 
Nick Wah on the off wing his shot and they got the outside of the goal post line. So, let’s talk 
about the new guys here. Watch Dakota Joshua from behind. We talked about young Sandine Pelica. But 
here comes Nicholas W. Look, he’s got a hot hand right now. I love not deferring in situations 
like that. Everything seems to close in. What nifty work from Joshua knowing where his outs 
are in terms of a five on three with a clean win for Dylan Larkin on this faceoff against Nick 
W. They get it. Cider walks it drifts it low. De Brink now Cider calling for it up top. Raymond 
and the Debrink shot stopped by Stallars. He’ll fish for it and still fought for it. Larkin dicks 
it out. He scores. Dylan Larkin out of the pile finds the prize and the Red Wings get the power 
play goal and break the ice. Just an excellent job of hunting this down. Obviously the faceoff 
is everything. Once the Wings win that, they go to work and we talked about the one-time. Watch this 
open up. You got to bring that on the side, but it’s continuing to find it. And how about Dylan 
Larkin in front? I mean, is it a skate? Is it stick? He’s got Chris Tana, a great penalty killer 
right in front of him. But his ability to find this thing, the awareness to know where the top 
shelf is, understand where the goalie is, falling away. Beautiful goal from 71. What a player. 
Battle won by Van Reike. Mason Appleton turns, takes it high. A great play in the back door. A 
chance. Stalwart says no. Bernard Docker doesn’t happen as that play goes on. That’s Bernard 
Docker, but it’s all the the read from Stalwar’s Robertson is away with Bobby McMahon. He’ll take 
it to the house. The chance follow up is stopped by Talbot. Simone Benois the trailer now through 
center. We’ll keep an eye on that plate. Here is Matthews. Matthews out in front. Ticked out with 
a purpose and denied by Talin. Off to beat him. Can you do it off the rush? Watch this. Takes 
everything off at far and that eventually goes to with Kane is running late and now it’s broken up 
short-handed. Matthews with nines for the front. Austin Matthews delay shoots. What a penalty 
upcoming. Continue to pour it on here. Here’s Robertson. Here he is. Nick Robertson pulls up 
out in front. Oh, mercy. What a stop by Talbot. Continue to pour it on here. Here’s Robertson. 
Here he is. Nick Robertson pulls up out in front. Oh, mercy. What a stop by Talbot with Bobby 
McMahon on the doorstep. It creates, watch this, all the way out of the zone. Leaf’s doing a really 
good job being patient. That’s what you call pushing the pace, dragging that weak side D over. 
It creates a chance like that. I mean, for Talbot, this thing’s picked out of the air. Watch Kane on 
the back track. I don’t even know if that thing had a chance to hit the ice before off the face 
off. Detroit right up the gut. Van Reike has some room. He walks in. He scores. That’s hockey, baby. 
What a goal. as James Van Reinsteinike goes to the roof. The former Maple Leaf and Detroit has a two 
nothing lead. Oh, caught in a bad spot here. But as this thing goes up, I mean, it’s a one draw, 
but watch this from a rain sec. He’s holding Riley up. Showing back. Showing backand. That’s 
enough to just get Riley to stay in the middle because he wants to make sure this thing doesn’t 
go backwards. Watch this. Riley backs off. Hey, James Van Greenbach. He’s been doing this for a 
long time. He’s done it in this building many, many times. Yeah, just for a guy that might know 
maybe now we’re going to see a touch more of that urgency I talked about for Zy. Yeah, I understand 
you’re playing a pretty good hockey game. The chances are there. Something’s got to pick 
up just a touch. Is it now a great pass from Matthew twice and Talb his best. That was Cowan 
in the middle. Watch this. A little backhand saucer pass. And it’s not the first save, it’s 
the second. But that thing laying right there. Calvin is so dialed in. Can’t tell what that is. 
Just remarkable. But when you’re on your game, you understand where the first one’s going, but 
you understand where that rebound’s going to be laying as well. Great reaed by Coffer. Bobby 
McMahon back on it at the point. McCabe will send it in. Matthews will see it now. Move 
it slightly. Coffer for Detroit in a tough area. McMahon now goes to work. He’ll kick 
it to a stick. Bobby McMahon out in front. Score with the tapping. Set up beautifully 
by Bobby McMahon. And Toronto’s on the board. The hunts to maintain possession. McMahon came off 
the bench. I mean, he was the only fresh guy here, but pulling pucks off the wall. One of the 
most difficult things to do. You see the Leafs continue to keep it alive. That’s McMahon 
going low. A breakdown happens. And how about that for Matthew Nice. Kids, you just put your 
stick on the ice. Sometimes you don’t even get a hold of it. But just labeled perfectly 
from McMahon. Watch his work on the wall right here. When you got two bodies in one 
area, especially defenseman down the wall, that’s when a lot of bells go off. St. Louis and 
Vancouver out west later on tonight. 7:30 Eastern start. Now along the boards, it’s cut off by NY. N 
will take it deeper out of the corner. Sandy Pelro was in the right place at the 
right time and this game is tied. But watch this stick from Austin Matthews. 
Sandine Pel coming out the zone. Just a little subtle tap. That’s enough for the young 
defenseman not to get the puck out. Sometimes that creates nothing. Other times it ends up 
in the back of the net. I talked about off the walls where the Leafs going to generates 
their offense off the walls. And what a pass by Matthew guys as he takes contact down to one 
knee. How does he see him there through through JT comper in the middle and what a finish and 
a healthy Kelly Young Cook. What’s that? He’s taken over this third period. Lin is away. Dylan 
Lin turns on the Jets. Springs him. It’s Apple. What a save by scores. A little bit sloppy as 
the Leafs come into the zone in this rim. Watch Larkin. He understands there’s tired bodies on 
the ice and it’s Apple just completely flying off a beautiful backhand saucer. And wait 
for Larkin to take it off the wall and give some space to the middle of the ice there. Red 
Wings until then went about 12 minutes without a shot on goal. Feny cycles out. Sherat blocked by 
Matthews. The rebound. They score. Mason Appleton right on the spot to Matthews and then off the 
stick. Watch this. He’s in the right spot. You’re you’re taught to front the puck. Just be in that 
lane. It goes off the skate off his stick and then it’s in the back of the net. And you got stores. 
I mean, he’s probably reacting to that first one. You see he’s not set there. And for Appleton, 
who was just shut down on the shift before finds that one. And timeout time for the Toronto 
Maple Leafs. He had 44 to tie this thing up. As seen now by Matthews. Two seconds 
left. Out in front. Fanned on by Tvaris. That’s all. And Detroit in front 
of Cam Talbet. They get it done.

  1. Let's go again, Wings!!
    But why is my home state Michigan suddenly only getting better in hockey right now than baseball and football?

  2. I hate the narrative around auston matthews.. he does the most basic thing and they act like its an amazing play.. he makes a mistake and they say "hes in the right spot" I feel bad for kids watching who don't know any better
