Winning a Close, Low-Scoring Game is Good For the Toronto Maple Leafs
Last night, the Toronto Maple Leafs took down the Nashville Predators by a close 3-2 score.
Not since March 2, when they beat the Calgary Flames 2-1, have the Toronto Maple Leafs won a hockey game with fewer than 7 goals scored.
The Leafs entered last night’s game coming off a game where they played hard, but ultimately came up short and lost 5-3 to the Carolina Hurricanes.
It would’ve been easy for them to throw in a half-effort game against the Predators, but they didn’t.
Toronto Maple Leafs Dominate a Low Scoring Game
They checked well, outshot the Preds 34-25, went 2/5 on the power play, and dominated the game overall. (naturalstattrick.com).
