Here is the real tipping point of game #7 Leafs loss.
Freddy Andersen lets in a real soft first goal on a Dermott turnover making it 1-0 Boston.
Marcus Johanssen scores on a Jake Gardiner drop pass to no one in his own zone, making it 2-0 Boston. (eventual series GWG).
John Tavares scores Leafs only goal of the game making it 2-1 Boston.
Sean Kuraly skates in 1 on 4 as Leafs players lazily try and stick check him, and beats an unscreened Freddy Andersen from 50 feet out on a wrist shot making it 3-1 and Game Over.
Clearly Babcock is to blame standing behind the bench watching this like the rest of us..
Why didn't he change things up in game #7 and play Hutchinson & Sparks instead of Andersen?
&
Why not play Calle Rosen and Justin Holl as his 3rd pairing and not Dermott and Gardiner in game #7?
All that could have been avoided if only the coach wasn't so stubborn and locked into his ways, unwilling to make changes that could have helped the Leafs win.
