Game Recaps

• Toronto Maple Leafs v. Florida Panthers – 7p ET – Game 4
  • In Florida the Toronto Maple Leafs would look to keep their season alive as they take on the Panthers in Game 4 of their second round series, and after a scoreless first period William Nylander would get a fortunate bounce while on the powerplay to give the Leafs the 1-0 lead. Then in the third period Sam Reinhart would strike on the powerplay for the Panthers, but a tally from Mitch Marner would give the Maple Leafs the 2-1 victory over the Panthers and force Game 5 on Friday night in Toronto.
