<p>That’s how you take care of business on home ice.</p>
<p>Mitch Marner scored the game winner as the Leafs edged the Panthers 4-3 to grab a 2-0 series lead in the second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.</p>
<p>Unbelievably, this is the first time in 21 years that the Leafs have won six games in a postseason.</p>
<p>Despite the early start time, we were jacked up to kick off the Thursday edition of Leafs Morning Take as once again, we were live on location at <a href="https://www.gretabar.com/locations/toronto">GRETA BAR YYZ</a>. For what it’s worth, the Leafs are 11-0 all-time in best-of-7 series when taking a 2-0 lead on home ice. That said, there’s no doubt the Panthers will show some fight as the scene now shifts to Sunrise for Game 3 and 4.</p>
<p>At any rate, we jumped into the full game recap. Max Pacioretty and Max Domi each notched a goal and an assist. Toronto played a team game. Simply put, they’re getting contributions up and down the lineup right now. Additionally, William Nylander scored again. He’s on fire, and quite frankly, we could be witnessing his postseason coming out party. The guy’s been incredible. Also, Joseph Woll made 25 stops. For us, it was the timeliness of his saves. The one on Mackie Samoskevich in the third period was the big one. Meantime, Toronto’s power play went 1-for-3, it&#8217;s now 1-for-8 in the series. Over and above all that, we gave some love for the crowd. They were great.</p>
<p>After that, brought to you by <a href="https://charmdiamondcentres.com/">Charm Diamond Centres</a>, Rosey’s former coach and current head coach/GM of Adler Mannheim Dallas Eakins stopped by the program. He raved about the job Berube’s done with this bunch. Most importantly, the biggest thing that has stood out for him is that Toronto’s playing with identity, passion, and purpose. Having said all that, Eakins still predicts a long series. He thinks it could go the distance. We shall see.</p>
