Game 5 LET’S GOOOOOOOOO! Time to close it out! Toronto Maple Leafs

It’s time for the Leafs to take advantage of home ice and end the series tonight. The crowd should provide a lift; hit and score early, and the building will be rocking. The Leafs have the best line in the series and a deep defense. At home, they should be able to control all the matchups and dictate the game. source

Matthew Knies — Auston Matthews — Mitch Marner
Pontus Holmberg — John Tavares — William Nylander
Bobby McMann — Max Domi — Max Pacioretty

Jake McCabe — Chris Tanev
Simon Benoit — Oliver Ekman-Larsson

Anthony Stolarz
Joseph Woll

Scratched: Dakota Mermis, Philippe Myers, Nicholas Robertson, David Kampf, Ryan Reaves, Artur Akhtyamov

Injured: Jani Hakanpaa (lower body)

    We’re in the annual phase where we make the other goalie look better than they are, before losing the series. 😂😭

    I hope we don’t need OT tonight. So sleepy from staying up late for the election coverage. 😂

    It’s very important that - I cannot stress this enough - we score more goals than OTT tonight.
