Maple Leafs just barely beat Chicago after looking like they had it in the bag
Photo by Mark Blinch/NHLI via Getty ImagesPetr Mrázek is back. Will the Leafs play well in front of him? Ond\u0159ej Kaše is on the top line, so we’ll see how that goes, too.
First Period
Well.
And I mean.
But.
1-0 Chicago, and guess why?
Turnover!
Jake Muzzin draws a penalty, so maybe they can get out of the hole they dug in the first 2 minutes.
Okay.
But...
I was kidding.
Tie Game
Power play looking good again, even if that was bad goalie-ing in part.
Kristi\u0101ns Rub\u012bns takes a penalty for — perhaps — being big. Not really sure about this one.
Niiiiice stop by Mrázek on Alex DeBrincat, though.
Chicago has the Leafs spinning on this PP. Clearing attempts are painfully bad.
