The Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Florida Panthers in Game 2 by a 4-3 score, taking a 2-0 series lead in the second round. The Maple Leafs delivered the perfect response to a chaotic, emotionally-charged opener versus the Panthers on Monday (May 5), where starting netminder Anthony Stolarz sustained an injury after receiving a sneaky, dirty elbow or forearm to the head from ex-teammate Sam Bennett.
