The NHL’s second round is here, and the Maple Leafs are still competing. This marks only the second time in the last nine playoff seasons that the team has advanced this far.
Toronto finished with the second-best record in the Eastern Conference and took the first wild card spot for the initial round. The Maple Leafs grabbed a commanding 3-0 lead, then dropped Games 4 and 5, yet ultimately advanced to the next stage after securing victory in Game 6.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are set to face the defending Stanley Cup champions, the Florida Panthers, in the second round. The Panthers pulled off an upset against Tampa Bay in the first round, winning in five games.
Florida dominated easily, wrapping up the regular season with 98 points. The Panthers trailed behind the Lightning by just four points, making it far from an shocking result, yet it remained significant as they pursued consecutive championships.
