The Toronto Maple Leafs played a horrible game on Wednesday night.
Taking on the Avalanche after their recent horrible performance against Buffalo on Monday, you’d think the Toronto Maple Leafs would have put up a better effort.
They did not.
They played horrible and could have lost by six goals, if not for the heroics of Ilya Samsonov.
