In the final hour of today's FAN Morning Show, hosts Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning look back to last night's Game 5 in Boston and discuss how to carry the momentum forward for the rest of the series. Sam McKee, producer and co-host of Real Kyper and Bourne and Leafs Talk, weighs in on what the Maple Leafs are capable of when everything clicks, Joseph Woll's performance between the pipes, Max Domi and Mitch Marner's play on the top line, and if the pressure now switches to the Bruins. Joshua Kloke, writer for The Athletic who was at TD Garden last night, shares his standouts from Game 5, before looking into how one game can change the mood of a series and the status of Auston Matthews (25:55). There is still hope, Leafs fans! The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
