"Have you seen him skate?"
Head coach Mike Babcock responded as such when asked about his Toronto Maple Leafs acquiring 38-year-old Patrick Marleau this summer.
As it turns out, Babcock may have been on to something, as Marleau proved he's still got NHL speed Tuesday night, breaking past the Senators' defense before rifling a perfect shot past Mike Condon in his first preseason showing with Toronto.
