Last night the Toronto Maple Leafs took on the Lightning in game 1 of their first-round playoff series.
IIt was the biggest game of the season so far, and many fans had high expectations for their team heading into that one. It’s safe to say the Toronto Maple Leafs fell extremely short of those expectations.
The Leafs had a very rough game one. Almost everything went wrong.
They were down 3-0 after the first period, they let in 4 power-play goals, Ilya Samsonov was pulled after letting in 6 goals on 29 shots, Michael Bunting got himself suspended after receiving a match penalty, and the Leafs ended up getting embarrassed at home, losing 7-3.
