If they lose tonight, it’ll be an incredible and historic collapse for the Toronto Maple Leafs, who are just trying to make the second round for the first time since 2004. This will be the game everyone is watching, especially since the NHL loves to have two games on the schedule and barely stagger them. Still, Game 7 playoff hockey? Doesn’t get much better than that.
