However, they were better than Vasilevskiy\u2019s (0.875 Save Percentage and 3.56 Goals-Against-Average).\u00a0Samsonov made the big saves when the games were on the line.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the playoffs it is not about putting up good stats, it is about winning games.\u00a0That is all that matters.\u00a0In over 100 playoff games with the Edmonton Oilers, Hockey Hall of Famer Grant Fuhr posted a lifetime Save Percentage of 0.896 and a Goals-Against-Average of 3.04.\u00a0 But, he won 74 of the 111 games he played and earned five Stanley Cup rings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Samsonov came into this season with a dismal 1-6 record in the playoffs.\u00a0After going 4-2 to this point in the postseason he has raised his record to 5-8.\u00a0Hopefully, by the time his playoffs are over he can get his record above 0.500.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Matthew Knies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I would have never thought coming into these playoffs Matthews Knies would have his name in the NHL record book for assisting on the first series-winning overtime goal scored by the Maple Leafs in 24 years.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even more amazing is the fact the Knies was on the ice for all three overtime game-winning goals by the Maple Leafs in this series.

In the past, there have been some Maple Leafs\u2019 defensemen that have made me shudder every time they have had the puck on their stick in the defensive zone.\u00a0For a player whose forte is his play without the puck, almost every time Schenn had the puck in his zone, in this game, and in the series, he was able to create room for himself to make a play with it\u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schenn has the ability to appear to slow the game down and create calm amongst the turmoil.\u00a0There was only once in this game that the puck did not go from his stick to another Toronto player\u2019s stick in the Maple Leafs\u2019 zone.\u00a0The one time he did turn it over he was immediately all over the player and prevented them from making a play with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is exactly the type of player I am sure the Maple Leafs envisioned Schenn would become when they picked him 5th overall in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft.\u00a0They just never expected it to be 900 games later and after he had played for six other teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scoring Under Pressure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest criticism this version of the Maple Leafs has received in the past has been their inability to score when it really counted.\u00a0That wasn\u2019t the case in this series.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Game 3 they were down a goal in the dying minutes and scored with their goalie pulled to tie the game and then won it in overtime.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Game 4 they were down three goals with just over ten minutes to go in the third period. They stormed back and scored three goals in the last half of the period and won that game in overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Game 5 they were down by two goals. They scored a goal to pull within one late in the third period with their goalie pulled.\u00a0They failed to get the equalizer in that game, but they had their chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then of course they scored in the extra period in this game to eliminate the Lightning.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/thehockeywriters.com\/maple-leafs-news-rumors-liljegren-bunting-vasilevskiy\/\">Maple Leafs News &amp; Rumors: Liljegren, Bunting &amp; Vasilevskiy<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Bad<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There were a number of breakdowns on Steven Stamkos\u2019 game-tying goal in the third period.\u00a0First Knies lost a battle for the puck along the boards deep in the Toronto zone.\u00a0Then Erik Gustafsson, who had knocked the puck up to Knies, failed to react fast enough and remained out of the play in the corner.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Darren Raddysh fired the puck on net from the point, Mark Giordano failed to block the shot from getting through to Samsonov.\u00a0William Nylander, who had Stamkos covered, let him get away from him and get open.\u00a0Alex Killorn provided a screen and a distraction for Samsonov who stopped Raddysh\u2019s shot but let the rebound get away from him right onto Stamkos\u2019 stick.\u00a0Stamkos made no mistake, firing the rebound into the open cage before Samsonov could recover.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ugly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I am sure most Maple Leafs\u2019 fans thought Toronto could win this series.\u00a0I am guessing they never thought they would win it in the way they did. Rather than playing to their puck-possession strengths, and controlling play, the Maple Leafs played a defense-first game and spent a lot of time collapsing down in front of Samsonov. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That strategy prevented the Lightning from penetrating into the dangerous areas of the ice.\u00a0As a result, Tampa carried the play for long stretches of each game and spent tons of time in the Toronto end of the ice.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maple Leafs had 138 blocked shots in the series, including 29 in Game 6. Their 138 blocks are the most by any team in the first round of the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs, 24 more than the New York Islanders, whose 114 blocks are the second most.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Round 1, Game 6.
