The Toronto Maple Leafs are done with Game 1 of their Stanley Cup Playoffs first round and emerged 5-0 victors over the reigning champions.
Very few Toronto Maple Leafs fans would have bet on such an outcome, not least expected the team to get the job done in such an emphatic manner.
The challenge now is to not get too full of ourselves and realize that one game does not make a series. The Leafs need to back this performance up with more of the same. After all, the Tampa Bay Lightning understand the efforts that go into winning the Stanley Cup and won’t be resting easy on the back of such a dominant Toronto win.
