Sheldon Keefe Post Game, Leafs 3 vs. Hurricanes 2: “That’s two games in a row against really good teams where we went into the third period with the lead and out-chanced the opponent”

On the team’s performance:

I liked a lot about it. It took us a little while to get going in our game. We figured that would be the case with the way Carolina is on top of you. They don’t give you a lot of time to move the puck or anything like that. Offensively, we knew it was going to take a little while, not unlike Dallas.

Defensively, I didn’t like some of the things we did early in the game. We gave up a couple of odd-man rushes early that kind of opened the game up a little bit for them and allowed them to get some chances and shots.
