Marchand causes mayhem in Toronto, while the Golden Knights return home with a 2-0 series lead.
After a lot of home team success through the first bunch of games of the playoffs, the road teams had the last laugh for Wednesday’s action, including a couple of clutch performances from experienced captains. Let’s look back at what happened here. Brad Marchand knows how to frustrate players and fans
It wasn’t until later in the second period when the scoring opened up. Just after the 13-minute mark, Mitch Marner threw the puck towards the net, and Matthew Knies was there to bury it and give the Leafs a 1-0 lead. But just as it seemed like the Leafs were going to maintain momentum from Game 2, chaos ensued.
You expected some sense of desperation from the Stars in this one, and it definitely showed. They outshot the Golden Knights 11-6 in the first period, and even managed to open the scoring with a power play marker from Jason Robertson. However, this trend of not being rewarded for good play continued for Dallas, as only 82 seconds later, Jonathan Marchessault tied the game.
