The Toronto Maple Leafs have become masters of the unlikely comeback to force overtime. Unfortunately, they have not mastered overtime yet. Last night the team showed both of these things to be true as they lost 6-5 to the Blue Jackets. Head coach Sheldon Keefe Had some interesting things to say about the game.
While the words 'gave up' never exited Keefe's mouth, it is pretty clear that that is what he meant if you read between the lines of his statements following the game. The head coach admitted to setting the goal in the 3rd period not to come back in the game, but just to out some offensive pressure on the Blue Jackets.
