Your game in 10:
1. After getting outscored 11-3 versus two non-playoff teams this week, the Leafs needed a response, starting with a strong road period in a tough building/infamous house of horrors. Here were the five-on-five numbers after 20 minutes:
- 21-7 shot attempts in favour of Boston
- 12-3 scoring chances in favour of Boston
- 10-2 shots in favour of Boston
Mix in two unsuccessful (overlapping) power play attempts, and it looked dire for the Leafs after the opening frame.
The Leafs‘ first six minutes, leading up to the end of their first PK, were actually just fine.
