They now trail 2-1 in the best-of-seven series that will determine which club from the NHL’s Western Conference advances to the final.

I think last night it was a little too long and the Stars got a lot of momentum and poured it on.
“We did not push back quick enough,” Zach Hyman said. The former Maple Leaf leads all scorers in the postseason with 13 goals. “The key to the playoffs is understanding that not every game is going to go to script. You have to be able to manage your emotions.
