Craig Berube faced his former team, the St. Louis Blues, for the first time since his departure, but the Toronto Maple Leafs suffered a disappointing 5-1 defeat at Scotiabank Arena.

Dylan Holloway led the scoring for the Blues, while Toronto's Joseph Woll made his season debut after a lengthy injury absence. Despite a rocky start, Woll made some impressive saves, but the Leafs struggled overall, facing boos from the home crowd.

With this loss, Toronto's challenges continue as they prepare for their next matchup against the Boston Bruins.
