The Maple Leafs play the second half of their Florida road trip tonight against the Panthers. Things certainly started off well with a 4-2 win last night against the Lightning.
Admit it. You were really nervous about that game and how it would go. After the loss against the Bruins, then that fiasco against the Avalanche on Tuesday, this team needed to make a statement that they are the real deal. And they did.
Now to follow-up with proof.
Sure, we all remember back in December when the Leafs rolled over the Panthers, winning 6-1, but there was a game a few days before that which the Panthers won 4-3 in overtime, and that was a game where Andersen was in net.
