The Toronto Maple Leafs took the Washington Capitals to six games in their first round match up but the story doesn't end there. The Leafs and Capitals also played a series that was a lot closer than anyone really expected.
With the Presidents Trophy Winners against the Number 2 Wild Card team to face each other before game 1, experts and fans pegged the Leafs to go down in 4 or 5 games. In a surprising turn of events the Leafs went to Over Time in Game 1 and lost that game but it was the start of what fans believed as a great series and a series that we never expected.
Five out of the six games went to Over Time and each of the six games was separated by a single goal difference.
It is a tremendous way for the Rookies on the Leafs team to gain this type of experience for the future seasons.
We are proud of Leafs Nation.
Go Leafs Go!
