Sheldon Keefe Post Game, Leafs 2 vs. Panthers 1 (SO): “A hard-fought game that required a lot from our guys… We stood in there”

On the team’s performance:

I thought we started the game fine. We knew they were going to make it hard on us. We started fine, and we were making our way through the game. With eight minutes left in the first period, shots were 7-7 and it was 0-0.

We just sagged after that. Credit to Florida. They were making it hard on us. I don’t know what it was. It coincided with Mitch taking that puck to the face. I don’t know if that is it. I don’t think it should be it.
