Toronto Maple Leafs Seek Strong Finish After Recent Road Trip
Most players will make good use of their time off after a busy first half, which concluded with a four-game (3-1) road trip, channeling this break into a strong finish for the final 37 games of the season.
The past three seasons, coinciding with the showcase, have seen Toronto's points percentages of .628, .706, and .675, respectively, as the schedule prepares to resume.
While healthy spring runs have resulted in only one playoff series win, Craig Berube is now steering this talented roster, highlighting its unrealized potential, contrasting the previous leadership of Sheldon Keefe. Consequently, there is less excitement within the city about the positive numbers thus far, despite still being in sight of the top spot in the Atlantic Division.
Perhaps what has been missing in those final days of decision-making regarding the Leafs' first-round match was a meaningful chase for first place. However, those in Leafs Nation, who have endured the pain of dashed expectations, are simply seeking additional efforts to ensure a longer post-season journey.
