Flyers 3, Leafs 1 - End of the First

So, the Leafs scored on their first shot of the game. The only problem with that was that it came with less than one minute left in the period! And, to make matters worse, two horrible giveaways by Bryan McCabe and another by Brian Leetch resulted in three Flyers goals. Except for maybe their elimination game against New Jersey a couple years ago where they managed a total of six shots all game, that might have been the worst period of Leafs hockey I have ever watched. Wow.

Oh, and in the course of the period, the Leafs played 4-on-4 and were on their second powerplay before they were able to give Robert Esche something to do.

Hopefully that last goal will get them a little energized and they can come back. Or I'll see you at game 7.

On a last note, what a terrible jacket, Don!
