Leafs Nation can finally exhale (momentarily). 💙 • After two missed chances, the Toronto Maple Leafs closed the door on the Ottawa Senators, winning 4–2 in Game 6 to advance to the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. 💪 • It was a long time coming — Toronto had lost 13 of their last 14 potential series-clinching games since 2018 — but Thursday night felt different. 🔥 • Max Pacioretty, with his first goal since December 20, broke a 2–2 tie late in the third, before William Nylander sealed it with an empty-netter on his 29th birthday 🎂 (his second of the game!). • Auston Matthews opened the scoring with a power-play snipe, and Toronto jumped out to a 2–0 lead early in the second. Ottawa clawed back, but this time, the Leafs didn’t fold. 🙌 • Not only do they move on, they win another Battle of Ontario, their fifth playoff series win over Ottawa since 2000. 👏 • Next stop: a showdown with the defending Stanley Cup champs, the Florida Panthers.🚨 #thegist • #hockey #...
