Round 1 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs got going on Sunday night for the Leafs with a big win in Game #1 over the Ottawa Senators!
In this episode, we break down everything from Anthony Stolarz’s rock-solid performance between the pipes to the power play finally clicking (3 for 6, baby!). Marner and Tavares showed up in a big way, and it wasn’t just the stars—every line was buzzing with chemistry.
We also dive into how the coaching change is clearly paying off, why this year’s playoff vibe feels different, and how the crowd’s electric energy helped set the tone. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves—staying cool, calm, and collected is going to be key with the Sens looking to make some adjustments.
Whether you bleed blue or just love playoff hockey, this is one post-game breakdown you won’t want to miss. Go Leafs Go!
