The Leafs looked very good in game one, blanking the Lightning 5-0. Campbell was sharp and has been strong down the stretch after a huge stumble mid season. Offense has never been an issue for the Leafs, but they seem to have tightened up on defense, especially after a key defensive addition at the deadline. They have been one of the NHL’s best home teams this season, and the Lightning are fallible on the road. Game 1 could be a wake-up call for the Lightning. It is hard not to be reminded of that 8-2 recent drubbing of the Leafs. it could also be that Toronto is the real thing this year, on their way to rid themselves of that playoff monkey on their back. I am on the Leafs, at least at home tonight.
