By the Numbers: Leafs offence missing at worst time MORE:
“We’re trying to do all the right things,” Marner said following the 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers in Game 3. “I think we’ve had our chances. We’ve had our looks. Just hasn’t gone [in] for us yet.
"For us, it’s just making sure we’re continuing to do the right things out there on the ice and try to get around that net a little more and try and create second opportunities.” Toronto’s power play has clicked at a similar rate in the postseason but has seen limited opportunities. The Leafs operated at a 26 per cent success rate with the man advantage in the regular season, second only to the Edmonton Oilers’ 32.4 per cent mark. In the playoffs, the Leafs have a 25 per cent success rate, but have only one goal in seven opportunities against the Panthers – a 14.2 per cent mark.
Overall, the Leafs have a big hill to climb as only four teams in NHL history have come back to win a series after trailing 3-0.1975 second round: New York Islanders beat Pittsburgh Penguins2014 first round: Los Angeles Kings beat San Jose Sharks“In terms of what I can do, it's continue to put them in positions to succeed. That would be the first thing,” Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe said Monday.
