After splitting the first two games of their Stanley Cup Playoffs play-in series, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Columbus Blue Jackets square off in a pivotal Game 3.

So far, the Stanley Cup Playoffs series between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Columbus Blue Jackets has been must-watch television. Game 3 was an unforgettable game, as the Maple Leafs took an early 3-0 lead. However, the Blue Jackets, as they usually do, came storming back to tie the game. In overtime, Pierre-Luc Dubois completed his first postseason hat trick to give the Jackets a 2-1 series lead.

The Leafs must find a way to win in Game 4. Otherwise, their season is over. And due to the high expectations of the franchise, changes could be coming this offseason if they fall short of their lofty goals.

PREVIEW

The Maple Leafs will be sticking with Frederik Andersen in net today. Aside from Game 3, he’s been great for the Leafs this postseason. Game 3’s failures are more on the guys in front of him than Andersen.

On the other side of the ice, the Blue Jackets were thoroughly outplayed for the first half of Game 3, but Pierre-Luc Dubois and Seth Jones gave them the sparks they needed to make an epic comeback for the second straight season.
