Against the Leafs they got a bit lucky, but Leafs are a strong team and sometimes you need that in the playoffs.

I think stats v that sad excuse for a team need to be taken with a grain of salt. I don’t think anyone disagrees they were by far the better team and they dominated the Jets in every aspect. People are just saying it’s a whole new ball game. They were not dominant against the Leafs, and the Leafs, IMO, get beaten by pretty much every team in the other divisions. Maybe they beat St. Louis but that’s about as far as I can go.
