Las Vegas - He shoots, he scores. That was a famous Foster Hewitt line when he was calling the Toronto Maple Leafs games. We're gonna switch it up and say, they shoot, they score, they win.

And their run differential is a staggering +72, second only to the Tampa Bay Rays (+103).

Las Vegas - Back to the ice tonight and we're gonna try the Maple Leafs in the opening game of the series against the Panthers. These two met four times during the regular season, with the Leafs winning three. Standing O for Florida after knocking out the BEST team in the NHL, the Bruins. Another standing O for Toronto after sending the talented Lightning off to the golf course. And you can bet, we will, that NOT losing in the 1st round will take a GINORMOUS load of pressure off the Leafs.
