Panthers find their killer instinct, close gap on first-place Maple Leafs
Brushing off an opening minute Toronto power play, the Panthers scored two a minute apart soon after and added a mid-game short-handed marker to force the Leafs to play catch-up all night. After compiling a 7-1 record without Auston Matthews and a few other top six forwards, the Leafs missed those snipers at 5-on-5.
