The #LeafsForever Stanley Cup Drought will get to at least 58 years now… Even more amazing, they haven’t defeated the #NHLBruins in a playoff series since 1959. #StanleyCupPlayoffs

What’s amazing about the Maple Leafs playoffs struggles is that they’re a team built for offence (half their cap is spent on four forwards) and yet they have trouble scoring in the post-season. Toronto has now been held to two goals or fewer in 13 of it’s last 14 playoff games.
