The Leafs lost the first game against Columbus. They gave up one goal in a game where their defending was good enough for Frederik Andersen, who was good enough to save one goal over expected, and put the team in a position to win it at the other end of the ice.
They did not.

Look at the Leafs all-situations offence. It’s not terrible. It’s got some good levels of shooting and some good locations, but it’s got a lot of junk from the left point, too. It’s okay, just okay.
