I was afraid this would be a bad game, but looking at the stats they look pretty equal.
Leafs: 55GP, 31W, 16L, 8 OT, 70Pts, .636P%, 3rd Div LVGK: 56GP, 32W, 18L, 6 OT, 70 Pts, .625P%, 2nd Div
The back-to-back games and flying could be what works against them. But if the Leafs play strong they have an equal chance of winning.

Rielly is back which is nice. It will be interesting to see if Keefe moves Brodie back to the rt side and how he manages JTs minutes/duties.
Biggest test of the year in the next 72 hours. Sounds like Jones is in tonight. I thought was odd he wasnt in last night. C'mon 34!!

What a boost to the confidence of they could nail the next 2 games. Highly unlikely with travel and back to back but they’ve looked different these last few games. A little bit more “ snot” to their game. Anything can happen,

Enjoy the game tonight you night owls. It’s going to be tough as the 2nd of a back to back against a solid team.

I watched the first 20 and don't really believe what I saw. Jones held the fort for the first five minutes and then hard work to go over. I am def in a bit of a shock.

Great 1st period. They can't take their foot off the gas in period 2 and let LVK in the game.

Boys have their feet moving tonight. Nice to see others on the board other than 16 and 34. I’m in a bit of shock as well. Less than 30 to go!! C’mon boys!

This is a game you could not predict. The score, the fact that the big boys haven't got a goal, that Reeves is +2, and that the bottom six guys have been the star make it almost surreal. As crazy as this game is I honestly hope the big guy gets one.

Its pushing 2 AM here but that sure was fun to watch. The bottom six have never played the better game of hockey in their entire lives, and it was certainly good to see the big guy get one at the end.
Fatigue was certainly a factor here and there but McCabe and Benoit just keep getting better and McCann is becoming a mini legend.

Wow, what a game. Leafs beat the defending SC winner 7-3, 6th win in a row. Most goals from players least expected.
1st period McCabe Kampf Domi Tavares
2nd period Domi Holmberg
3rd period Matthews - 52nd goal
When the Knights got those 2 fast goals at the beginning of period, I thought the Leafs were going to blow the game. But then it settled down and the Leafs didn't allow the Knights to score again.

Let's keep it going. What has happened on back end? Who is coaching them? Love seeing the points pile up. Rielly hit/suspension could end up best thing that happened to club all year.
I've said it before but I'm totally fine with Max Domi. May not score enough but guy is always working, chipping in. I wouldn't mind him back.
