The Leafs led 2-0 within the first six minutes and 3-1 at the start of the second period. After that, three unanswered goals by Sam Reinhart, Carter Verhaeghe, and Jonah Gadjovich put Florida ahead before Morgan Rielly tied it 4-4 in the third.

Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube tried to avoid making headlines before Game 3 by downplaying the antics of Florida Panthers forward Brad Marchand. When asked about the veteran winger’s reputation as a chirper, the Leafs coach shrugged it off.

The Maple Leafs defenseman understandably was devastated after Brad Marchand ’s shot deflected off him and past goalie Joseph Woll at 15:27 of overtime to give the Florida Panthers a 5-4 victory in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Second Round at Amerant Bank Arena on Friday.
