"&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It was another week of wild movement on the charts, or pretty much exactly what you\u2019d expect in the early going as skids were corrected and good fortune ran dry. The Canadiens&amp;nbsp;continued to dominate, but more important, they\u2019re demonstrating that they don\u2019t need Carey Price to play at an MVP level for them to win. It was jarring (but promising) to watch them attacking instead of sitting on a lead late in a 4\u20131 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.

Detroit was outshot 76-42 in those two contests, highlighting its struggles in transition and hesitation to simply get pucks to the net. A little less fancy, a little more grit.

Special teams were a real problem, especially in a lopsided 5\u20133 loss to the Bruins. On the bright side, they\u2019ve outscored their opposition 14-4 at even strength, a rate topped only by Montreal.

The work ethic isn\u2019t quite there yet, something that\u2019s especially obvious on a penalty kill that\u2019s allowed a league-high seven goals on just 18 chances.

The result: a 6\u20133 crushing of Columbus that counted as Toronto\u2019s first win of the season, and a solid showing in a 2\u20131 loss to the Pens. Baby steps, but important ones, just the same. &lt;strong&gt;Last week: 1-1-0&lt;/strong&gt;\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\t26\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t26New Jersey Devils\r\n\t\r\n\r\n\t\r\n\t&amp;nbsp;\r\n\t\r\n\r\n\tlast week:&amp;nbsp;24\r\n\r\n\trecord:&amp;nbsp;1-3-1\r\n\r\n\tPlease send a kind thought to New Jersey\u2019s netminders, who have been \u201Csupported\u201D with just one regulation goal in four of their five games.
