GAME TWO LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO 
For the first time since 2002, the Toronto Maple Leafs hold a lead in a second-round series.
We have to go back a year earlier (2001) to find the last time they won the first game of a second-round playoff series. Step one for not repeating what happened two years ago against the Florida Panthers was “don’t fall into a big hole again,” starting with winning Game 1. The Leafs put together their best five-on-five performance against the Panthers at any point this season, scoring five times at full strength and showing good perseverance to stem the tide of a possible Panthers comeback a couple times en route to a 5-4 win. source
