Leafs vs Sens | Battle of Ontario Playoff Preview
Manage episode 481278577 series 3664305
The stage is set: Leafs vs. Senators — the Battle of Ontario is finally back in the playoffs! In this episode, we build our ideal playoff forward lineup for the Leafs: who should land on the second line, how the third line should shape up, and which depth players could find themselves on the outside looking in. Then it’s a head-to-head comparison of star power: Matthews vs. Tkachuk, Nylander vs. Stützle, Marner vs. Batherson — will Ottawa’s top players have an answer for Toronto’s biggest names when the pressure is on? We also break down what to expect from Craig Berube behind the bench — how his style differs from Sheldon Keefe, and whether the Leafs' special teams can hold up against an Ottawa squad that leads the league in drawing penalties. Finally, we each pick the biggest reason the Leafs will win — and the biggest concern heading into the series. Is this finally the year the Leafs exorcise their playoff demons?
