Remember, the Maple Leafs came in having gone 1-13 in games in which they could eliminate an opponent in the Nylander-Matthews- Mitch Marner era. Now it seemed that, once again, they'd found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory when such an opportunity was in front of them.

The Maple Leafs posted a series-clinching 4-2 victory over the Senators on Thursday night in Game 6 of the first-round matchup.
