And the Toronto Maple Leafs’ win-less streak continues.
On Tuesday night, the Buds dropped their sixth straight loss at the hands of the Vegas Golden Knights. The two squads went back and forth and it looked like Nic Petan was going to even the scoring late in the third period but Marc-Andre Fleury had other ideas. After falling out of position, Fleury stretched out and absolutely ROBBED Petan with a glove save. The latter was looking at an open net but just couldn’t squeak it past the Golden Knights netminder.
Fortunately for hockey fans (except for Leafs Nation), the perfect photo was captured of it.
Now THAT is a photo of a lifetime. You better believe fans had a thing or two to say about the play:
Cody Eakin eventually put home an empty-netter to send the Leafs below .500 (9-10-4). In fairness to Petan, it was a tough angle but you’ve got to give it to the Flower for showing some ridiculous athleticism.
