Leafs have got to diversify their 3rd & 4th lines more to cause commotion. Waves of skill guys all with similar weaknesses are doomed if opposition figures them out.
Well they have Nick Robertson, a less skilled (and smaller?) Marner-type player coming. He'll change things.
On whichever sports channel show they put up the 5x5 stats for the series. The Leafs had approximately 60% of the puck possession (something preached as a positive) while taking quite a few more shots on goal yet were outscored 10-3. One could look at that and say Columbus' goaltending was better than Anderson's. I noticed that Toronto averaged approximately 1.5 shots per minute of possession while Columbus averaged 2 meaning that when the Blue Jackets had possession they put pucks on the net more often which is a problem with how I see the Leafs play. They put in a lot of work in the opponent's zone with little to show for it.
