The Toronto Maple Leafs Lose to the Capitals for Second Loss in a Row
The Toronto Maple Leafs have gotten excellent goaltending all season long.
The Toronto Maple Leafs went a full month without losing, and even during that month they played a few bad games but managed to win them, either through luck or good goaltending.
Last night though, the team played OK, the goalie had an off night and that was that.
Capitals 5 Leafs 2
Toronto Maple Leafs vs Washington Capitals
Ilya Samsonov was cut by the Capitals, the team that drafted him, and he wanted to show them up in a big way.
He did not.
No big deal, he’s having a solid season and I’m sure he’ll get another chance.
