<div class="three-col-table-wrap">

A year ago today, the Toronto Maple Leafs had the chance to force a Game 7 against the Washington Capitals.

Despite one highlight-reel goal from <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRXtCFbQa3g">Auston Matthews</a>, the Leafs were unable to force that seventh winner-take-all game.

Today, they get a second chance in their second consecutive do-or-die matchup.
