Thursday FTB: tonight is the night

Game six. The Lightning backed against the wall. The Leafs with a chance to take it. Can they do it?

Some stats:

  1. The Lightning have only faced one elimination game in two years, the only time being game seven against the Islanders. The Leafs have pushed them to the brink in six.
  2. The Lightning haven’t lost back-to-back games since 2019, so never in the last two years.
  3. The Leafs are 1-3 in game sixes in the Matthews era. And I don’t need to tell you they’ve never won a game seven.
