From simmonssteve: Once-in-a-lifetime night for Maple Leafs' Morgan Rielly in romp over Lightning
But Thursday night was so much about the greatness of the Leafs and all the possibilities this team can provide.
The Leafs went up 4-1 in the second period and Rielly had the primary assist — his fourth on four Toronto goals. Mo, being Mo, had little to say about his game-changing night and his series-altering play. He’s too humble to say much about it. He’s been too internally discouraged by a season that hasn’t gone his way after signing a rather large contract with the Leafs.Article contentRielly has always been the kind of player you cheer, you hope for, and you want to be better every night because he has that kind of talent, because he’s such a strong skater, that you look at him so many nights and expect more.
