The first 15 minutes of the first period looked like the Ducks game 2.0. The Leafs tilted the ice and directed plenty of pucks at the net - the shots were 17-3 Toronto in the first period, not including crossbars for William Nylander and Auston Matthews...
The only two penalties of the game arrived within 30 seconds of each other late in the first period, one a trip drawn by Morgan Rielly while spinning away from Tomas Hertl's forecheck and another a delay-of-game call on Mikael Granlund for handling the puck on the faceoff. The Leafs cashed in on the 5-on-3.
