Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans!

Well, morning anyway.

[Recap: Florida wins it clean in Game 4.Series is all tied up and heading back to Toronto.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/icon/PPP-Goalie-Logo_RGB-197.png)PPP LeafsCathy Squires![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/thumbnail/photo-1555685460-1d9cf532761b)](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/recap-florida-leafs-decisive-panthers-win/)

Yeah, the Leafs lost and got pushed around by the innocent, always perfect Florida Panthers who somehow got four power plays in the first period alone.

There's plenty to rant about, but the Leafs need to find a proper way to respond and hopefully coming back to home ice will help them out. 

There wasn't somewhere else to turn to however, as the Toronto Sceptres also lost yesterday, 7-5, and went down 2-1 in their best of five series against the Minnesota Frost.

[MINNESOTA TAKES 2-1 SERIES LEAD IN HISTORIC HIGH-SCORING GAMESAINT PAUL, MN (May 11, 2025) – The Minnesota Frost were on the winning side of a 7-5 victory in the highest scoring game in PWHL history to take a 2-1 series lead over the Toronto Sceptres on Sunday evening at Xcel Energy Center.

In the non-Toronto games, the Dallas Stars took a 2-1 series lead over the Winnipeg Jets\*, so at least something nice happened.

The Ottawa Charge and Montreal Victoire gave fans their money's worth as they headed into quadruple overtime before Catharine Dubois scored the long goal and tied the series 1-1.

Charge coach Carla MacLeod will need to rethink her footwear for game three:

Maple Leafs prospect Nathan Mayes helped the Spokane Chiefs beat the Medicine Hat Tigers 6-2 and that series is also tied 1-1.

Team Canada beat Latvia 7-1 at the World Hockey Championships and are now 2-0 in the round robin.
