Toronto – Nick Robertson knows it is a numbers game.
The MAPLE Leafs suite in turn made the qualifying mathematics more difficult for his main coach on Saturday.
Robertson scored the first two goals in Toronto in the bridles of Columbus Blue 5-0 after spent the last three games to watch from the press box as a healthy scratch.
The 23-year-old took advantage of the first period to put his team 1-0 before tearing another five-hole on Elvis Merzlikins per second.
“Just keep my game simple,” Robertson said about his approach. “Come with energy and motivation to contribute.”
The striker, who is five feet and 178 pounds, has four goals and decisive assistants this season in a match immediately after scratch-an offensive trend back to last season when he occupies a seat.
“Nobody likes to sit, right?” ” “You are returning there and you are more hungry. There is no doubt about it.”
Robertson, who raised the beauty of his season to 14 goals and seven passes in 62 competitions, said the exit from the squad provides a reset.
He said: “More hunger gives you to return until it is effective.” “My job is now recovery, preparation and continuing the same mindset.”
