After the game, TSN hockey analyst Mike Milbury said it best. The Leafs played hard, played well and lost. That's the perfect game for this team at this time.
I'm happy with the recent effort from this squad, but my greatest fear was that they'd go on a winning streak and sneak back into contention for the elusive 8th spot. This was an easy loss to swallow and a nice compromise.
