Last night, the
Toronto Maple Leafs
faced off against the Carolina Hurricanes in a Saturday night showdown.

With the Leafs holding a 4-2 lead in the final minutes, they found themselves on the wrong side of a penalty. Sebastian Aho capitalized with two quick goals to tie the game, ultimately leading to a shootout loss, with Andrei Svechnikov sealing the deal for the Hurricanes.

Maple Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe shared his thoughts on the game.

"I thought we got good efforts from the guys tonight. The result sucks, but I thought we stood in there. At times, we carried play. We scored four goals. We very easily could've had three or four more against a team that gives up almost nothing. There are a lot of encouraging things if we look at it from a process point of view that we really like, but obviously, there are key moments in the game we have to do a better job of." - Keefe on his team's effort in a 5-4 shootout loss

While Keefe praised his team's effort, Leafs fans are understandably frustrated. Blowing leads, especially as the playoffs approach, is a cause for concern.

Fans expect better from their team, and crediting them after such a collapse isn't sitting well with many.
