Your game in 10:
1. Perhaps it was the afternoon start or the flu bug going around the Leafs‘ room (or both), but the opening frame was largely as ugly of a period of NHL hockey as you’ll watch, with very few completed plays in either direction and very few scoring chances of note.
It briefly looked like the Leafs were settling into the game — a couple of first-line shifts, as well as one third-line shift, spent in the offensive zone — but they repeatedly banged their heads against the wall on the breakout, missing the mark on basic passes and stalling out frequently.
