Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Max Domi Facing Potential Suspension From the NHL After Game 4

Toronto ended up dropping their second consecutive game against the Panthers, as the reigning champs tied the series 2-2 as things shift back to the Canadian side, where the Maple Leafs look to get back into the swing of things.

They did not play their best, and were hounded all night. It seems frustrations boiled over after Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Max Domi, And Sasha Barkov all got into a tussle.

First off, Oliver Ekman-Larsson laid in a hit to Evan Rodrigues, leading to the forward to stay down for several minutes before heading to the back. He was assessed a major penalty that was later downgraded.

He'll definitely warrant a look for it, but it was also Max Domi at the end of the game that might also be reviewed; he did shove the Florida golden boy and captain into the boards.

According to Pierre LeBrun, the NHL is most definitely going to look at things, but it's a bit strange that there is radio silence on Dimitry Kulikov's blatant elbow to the head of Mitch Marner that went unpunished.

It's another show of favoritism from the NHL towards the Panthers, and one wonders what exactly the Maple Leafs did to tick Gary Bettman off.

There could be a fine or a potential suspension involved, and if there is, you can bet the backlash is going to be loud.

It was a miserable night altogether for the Maple Leafs. Losing 2-0 isn't the worst thing but it's how they lost. Outshot 15-4 in the first period, the total shots ended up being 37-23 in favor of Florida.

Eight penalties, including four in the first alone did not help things, and it felt like the team was playing against both the Panthers and the refs (though this is now seemingly a regular occurrence).

Going back to Toronto, the team needs to get things going, or they are going to waste the best season Auston Matthews has ever had in a Leafs jersey.

Speaking of, he's gotta start putting it together too, and it has to start on Tuesday night.
