Game in 10: Outstanding PK and goaltending performance powers resilient Maple Leafs to 4-0 win in Dallas

Your game in 10:

1. While the shot attempts and shots don’t reflect too favourably on the Leafs in this one (39% share of shot attempts at five-on-five, which basically held from the start of the game to the end), the expected goals battle was around even or slightly favouring the Leafs for significant spells of the opening 40 minutes as Toronto built their 3-0 lead.

They did not possess the puck inside the offensive zone enough when they weren’t killing penalties, and some of that is due to the way all of the special teams time affects the game’s momentum and the flow of the bench.
