Nothing is going well in Toronto anymore. The Maple Leafs are behind 3-1 in their series against the Boston Bruins. Offensive stars don’t produce. Ill, Auston Matthews could miss Tuesday’s match. And now bickering seems to reign within the troops. Is this the last time we see the attacking core of Matthews, Mitch Marner, John Tavares and William Nylander? Where will we find a second wind in the Queen City? Our panelists discuss it and also take a look at other NHL series.
Host: Jérémie Rainville
Guests: Simon-Olivier Lorange, Alexandre Pratt and Antoine Roussel

The player that impresses me is Jeremy Swayman. We knew he was good, there, for me, it’s more than good, it’s an elite level. He makes the difference in this series.

As of June 2, 2021, Connor Hellebuyck is the worst goaltender in the league in the playoffs. His record since that day: 2 wins, 11 losses, an efficiency rate of .887 and [une moyenne de] 3.82.
