The Toronto Maple Leafs did not achieve the desired outcome during game one of their best-of-seven series at Scotiabank Arena.
The Leafs appeared visibly frustrated by the Lightning, and this frustration escalated when Leafs forward Michael Bunting was ejected from the game due to a dirty hit on Lightning's Erik Cernak.
