Toronto Maple Leafs flip a switch in the playoffs and find the same page Globe_Sports
Boston Bruins center Karson Kuhlman slides through the crease after a save on his shot by Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen during the third period of Game 1 of an NHL hockey first-round playoff series on April 11, 2019, in Boston.There is still much evidence against it, but the Toronto Maple Leafs are at the very least the exception that proves the rule. The proof, for them, came in their best team effort in months.
Tavares, Mitch Marner and Zach Hyman provided lots of offence in addition to their shutdown work. Auston Matthews may have had a relatively quiet night, but he and his linemates gave Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask a few scares. Third-line centre Nazem Kadri teamed up with right winger William Nylander for a highlight-reel goal that gave the Leafs the cushion they needed to play hockey’s version of keepaway in the third period.
There is no way Moore will forget his big hit. He said his family back in California sent him a memento of it that was making its way around social media. “My cousin sent me a video of it this morning. They had a good time with it,” he said. What matters now is repeating the effort in Game 2 on Saturday night at TD Garden. But the 4-1 win has the Leafs all singing from the same hymnal.
