Gavin McKenna held pointless in NHL debut for Toronto
The 2026 first overall pick logged 15:19 in a 2:3 loss to Montreal, finishing with one shot, two turnovers and a team-worst minus-2.
Toronto's 18-year-old, the first pick of the 2026 draft, finished the 2:3 loss to Montreal without a point.
He played on the second line with John Tavares and William Nylander, logging 15:19 on ice, 2:33 of it on the power play. One shot on target, two turnovers, and a minus-2 rating that tied him for the worst mark in the Toronto lineup alongside defenceman Darren Raddysh.
A quiet start for a player who arrived with the weight of a first overall pick.
