The Maple Leafs have been steady participants in the Stanley Cup playoffs since 2017 but have failed to reach the second round and now their worst fears have yet again been confirmed since they're set to face the powerful Lightning.
The Lightning has taken part in the last three Stanley Cup finals, winning two of them and they certainly won't stop there. Can Auston Matthews and his band really go through Andrei Vasilevski? Or will we wait another year before the Leafs break the curse?
