For two days, the situation for the Toronto Maple Leafs swung like a pendulum, full of speculation, doubt, and hope. The team faced a crucial choice: either win this decisive match for this campaign to become a turning point, bring real progress, and change their reputation forever; or fail again, giving critics the opportunity to completely dismantle and bury the current “blue and white” era.
Game 7s know no half-measures. There`s no room for error or a second chance. It`s a battle where the outcome is only one – triumph or complete collapse.
And on Sunday night, at Scotiabank Arena, enveloped in tension, nerves, and the city`s remaining flicker of hope, the Maple Leafs achieved only the latter outcome.
