Sheldon Keefe Post Game, Leafs 4 vs. Avalanche 3: “For most of the game, we were pretty overwhelmed, but we didn’t break”

On the keys to victory in the league’s toughest building:

Our power play striking as it did in the first period to cut their lead in half gave us hope and gave us a chance.

It is a different type of game than the ones we’ve played recently. Frankly, I thought for most of the game, we were pretty overwhelmed, but we didn’t break.

While they had a lot of those pushes, our guys were competing hard, blocking shots, boxing out, and fighting through fatigue. That gives you a chance. You don’t allow them to really blow the game open.
