The entire NHL was betting against the Toronto Maple Leafs last night, except for Leafs fans. The two-time stanley cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning came out flat in game 1 against the Maple Leafs and failed to score a single goal.

The Bolts had a 5 minute powerplay in the first period and almost failed to register a single shot.

The Leafs came out hard and played a very good game, but head coach Jon Cooper refuses to give this team any respect that it deserved after their performance last night.

Jon Cooper saying what you'd expect him to say, «I have the utmost confidence in our group». It's only G1 - LEAFS full value for the G1 victory but this series is far from over. 2X Stanley Cup Champions respond well to adversity and resets. #TLPFBreakdowns pic.twitter.com/JvoupYs6cF� TLPF Hockey🇨🇦 (@TLPF_Hockey) May 3, 2022
