3 least impressive Toronto Maple Leafs players from 6-1 blowout loss in Game 5 against Florida Panthers feat. Joseph Woll

The Toronto Maple Leafs were on the wrong end of a 6-1 shellacking by the Florida Panthers in Game 5 of their second-round series on Wednesday night at Scotiabank Arena.

The Maple Leafs were pounded for the second game in a row after suffering a 2-0 loss in Game 4 on Sunday night. They now trail 3-2.

Aaron Ekblad, Dmitry Kulikov, Jesper Boqvist, Niko Mikkola, A.J. Greer, and Sam Bennett (PPG) scored for the Florida Panthers. Nick Robertson scored his second career postseason goal to get the Leafs on the board late in the third period.

Here’s a look at the three least impressive Toronto Maple Leafs players from their thrashing at the hands of the Florida Panthers in Game 5.

#3 Jake McCabe/Chris Tanev

The Jake McCabe-Chris Tanev pairing, which has been a successful shutdown pairing all season long, was burned on several occasions in Game 5.

A.J. Greer’s third-period goal punctuated the pairing’s rough night.

McCabe appeared to get clipped by a high stick outside the crease. However, the officials did not call it and allowed the play to continue. Greer buried the puck into the empty net as the Leafs on the ice watched haplessly.

#2 David Kampf

David Kampf was inserted into the Toronto Maple Leafs lineup for Game 5 in hopes of shaking things up on the defensive side. However, that move backfired. Kampf was a minus-2 on the night and did not show any signs of offensive life.

Kampf was a non-factor in the game, allowing the Panthers to dictate the play. Kampf could get another look in Game 6 but might be on a short leash.

#1 Joseph Woll

Joseph Woll was brilliant in Game 4 and was the main reason the Leafs were not blown out.

Woll’s magic, however, ran out in Game 5. He surrendered five goals. While the Toronto Maple Leafs defense didn’t do much to help his cause, he did not make the saves he should have made.

Here’s a good example:

Mikkola’s shot from well beyond the face-off circle is one Woll should have had. But the shot blew past his glove side and into the back of the net.

Woll got the hook after the Panthers made the game 5-0 and was replaced by Matt Murray. Murray surrendered another goal.

The Maple Leafs will head back to Florida for Game 6 on Friday night with their backs against the wall.
