Leafs in 5. Tampa blew their whole load in the first game

Tampa was going to have a hard time holding back the Leafs elite players with no Hedman/Cernak and well, 3 of their 4 best players scored in the 1st period. Tampa isn’t winning this series unless they come back and quick.

Lottt of hockey left to be played in this one. With Cernak and Hedman out though, this is going exactly how it should so far

We are not coming from 3-0, if anything the score will only get bigger. Toronto needs the game more than us and it shows. Hopefully we get one of the two back for game 3.

It's going to be tough for TB to overcome losing their elite d man and another good defenseman.

I thought the Leafs had the advantage going into this series even prior to those injuries. Game one was surprising to me, but it's only game one.

Samsonov gives me pause, though.

The Leafs are such a weird team. Anyways, really good start. What they needed. Anything on a knife's edge and you're susceptible to a bad bounce making the difference - which happens (and why handing over a game on a silver platter like they did in G1 is so foolish). Time to keep the momentum going, lock it down, and not let Tampa back in.
