The Florida Panthers have displayed some really poor performances throughout the year, but nothing beats this defeat to the Maple Leafs last night away from home. The Cats self-destructed and fell to the hands of their divisional opponent, 6-1.
The Panthers may have started the game off well in the opening five minutes of play, but hockey, as we know, is a 60-minute game, not something you play well in for a grand five minutes.
That theme caught on pretty quickly, as the Leafs immediately ran away with the game. From outside the start, the Leafs dictated much of the momentum and created the majority of high-danger scoring chances.
