The Toronto Maple Leafs season is over.
The Toronto Maple Leafs lost a hardfought battle to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The Leafs were often criticized for being too soft, too small, too focused on skill, not defensive enough etc. but not one person criticized them for not having enough scoring.
So it is with great irony that they lost to a team who saved over 98% of the 5v5 shots they faced over five games.
