The Maple Leafs lead their playoff series against the Senators 2-0 for the first time since 2002, while the Senators host their first playoff game since 2017. The Leafs have capitalized on their power play, scoring four times on seven opportunities, highlighting the talent gap, particularly with stars like Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner. The Senators need to adjust their penalty-killing strategy and find ways to free Tim Stutzle from Toronto’s defensive pressure to turn the series around as they face off in Game 3 at the Canadian Tire Centre.
