Following the game, Auston Matthews made some comments that left Leafs' fans feeling uneasy about their team's future prospects.
"It's do or die"
Matthews appeared detached, causing concern that he may not be fully invested in the team's success.
Leadership and Passion Needed for Comeback
In order to turn things around, the Leafs will need their leaders to demonstrate more passion and commitment, or else this significant milestone for The Leafs may have just been a fluke.
Potential Consequences of Continued Losses
If the Leafs are demolished by the Panthers, despite finally winning a round, significant changes within the organization could be on the horizon. Dubas, Keefe, and the star players' positions in Toronto might be at risk.
Though a comeback is not impossible, fan hope has understandably reached an all-time low after yesterday's disheartening performance, and many have already given up on The Leafs.
