It was a fairy even game, going back and forth, until the Maple Leafs finally scored the final goal in OT to finish it off.
The Maple Leafs had quite a few powerplays during the game, in which they scored on 3 of them. During the after game media press conference, Flames Coach Darryl Sutter had some comments about the officiating and ''favoritism'' for the Maple Leafs:
«That's one thing I learned a long time ago � when you're in Chicago all those years and you come into Toronto, you know what goes on. I won't say nothing more.» -Darryl Sutter #Flames fans... after taking 7 penalties against the Leafs, do you agree with the coach? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/EFWr007HVK� Tim and Friends (@timandfriends) December 11, 2022
While there is definitely times you feel that a team is getting the better calls from the referee's, you definitely cannot say there is any ''rigging'' in the National Hockey League for the team that hasn't won a playoff series in almost 20 years.
