Let’s just say the Toronto Maple Leafs came back down to earth this week with the end of their three-game winning streak. I guess it was unrealistic for the Leafs to win every game until the end of the season! (Can’t a fan dream once in a while?) Toronto finished the week 2-1-1, but I am sure they realize they could have done better. They lost their first two games against the Arizona Coyotes and the Colorado Avalanche, but rallied to beat the New York Rangers and the Ottawa Senators. Looking at the past four games let’s see the Leafs good and bad points from the past week. (*Spoiler alert* The weak points centre around the beginning and the end of the first period.)
