[Game in 10: Maple Leafs’ core answers the bell in dominant Game 2 win over TampaCircumstances be damned, the Maple Leafs needed to win this hockey game. No Erik Cernak, no Victor Hedman, and no Michael Eysimmont. Down 1-0\. At home. They couldn’t lose. Not only did they even up the series, but they evened up the beatdown count, too, this time running it up on Tampa with a 7-2 \[…![](https://www.mapleleafshotstove.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/MLHS-LOGO2-EMBLEM-500x500.png)Maple Leafs HotstoveAnthony Petrielli![](https://mapleleafshotstove.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/auston-matthews-leafs-win.jpeg)](https://mapleleafshotstove.com/2023/04/21/game-in-10-maple-leafs-7-lightning-3-game-2/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Here is my recap from the other side at Raw Charge. [Recap: Seven for in Game 1, Seven against in Game 2The Toronto Maple Leafs got back at the Tampa Bay Lightning with a 7-2 blowout in Game #2 of their first round series to tie the series at 1-1.![](https://www.rawcharge.com/favicon.ico)Raw ChargeHardev Lad![](https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1546833998-877b37c2e5c6?crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&fit=max&fm=jpg&ixid=MnwxMTc3M3wwfDF8c2VhcmNofDE0fHxzZXZlbnxlbnwwfHx8fDE2ODIwNDY2ODI&ixlib=rb-4.0.3&q=80&w=2000)](https://www.rawcharge.com/recap-seven-for-in-game-1-seven-against-in-game-2/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Point vs Matthews, I get that.

In terms of real matchups, Cirelli was 5-8 and -1 against Matthews, Paul was 0-5 against O'Reilly and -1 against Tavares. > Jon Cooper pushed back against a question about the [#leafs](https://twitter.com/hashtag/leafs?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) improving their centre depth by dropping Ryan O'Reilly to the third line tonight: > > "Give me Point, Cirelli and Paul all day.

Spoiler alert, it's not whatever Maroon or Perry did. The game was lost long before that stuff and that's what the team will focus on. Maybe one area of focus will be the Lightning going 0/2 on the power play while the Leafs scored on two of their man advantage chances in the first two periods. > Long closed door meeting for [#TBLightning](https://twitter.com/hashtag/TBLightning?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) following tonight's 7-2 loss in Toronto. > > — Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) [April 21, 2023](https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/1649234521416450049?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) The first playoff hatty in 20 years, John Tavares is our guy. > John Tavares scored the first postseason hat trick by a [@MapleLeafs](https://twitter.com/MapleLeafs?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) skater in 20 years to help Toronto knot up its First Round series.[#NHLStats](https://twitter.com/hashtag/NHLStats?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com): [https://t.co/cw8HvlUMll](https://t.co/cw8HvlUMll?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) [pic.twitter.com/XZSaU3Ug2Y](https://t.co/XZSaU3Ug2Y?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) > > — NHL Public Relations (@PR\_NHL) [April 21, 2023](https://twitter.com/PR%5FNHL/status/1649234580593950727?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Playoff Mo, you absolutely love it. > Morgan Rielly (0-4—4) tied the [@MapleLeafs](https://twitter.com/MapleLeafs?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) playoff record for most assists in a game and became the fourth player to post a four-point performance in as many days since the start of the 2023 [#StanleyCup](https://twitter.com/hashtag/StanleyCup?src=hash&ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Playoffs. > > What's to come in the third?
