At one point, it looked like it might be a laugher, but the Avalanche battled all the way back from a 4-1 deficit to win 5-4 in overtime.
It’s a shame the Leafs had to play this one without Mitch Marner, Ondrej Kase, and Pierre Engvall, three players they surely could have used. But this is the type of game they need to play in order to learn about themselves and prepare for the playoffs. I’ll take this any day over thrashing the Ottawa Senators and the McDavid-less Oilers.
