The Toronto Maple Leafs are minutes from breaking their harrowing losing streak against the Edmonton Oilers with a 5-0 lead. If you want a moment that symbolizes this slum-breaking evening, look no further than Morgan Rielly’s mind-blowing goal:
Toronto’s still in a bad way as far as the 2014-15 season goes (the word tank was floating around tonight, and not just in regard to Edmonton), but moments like these might make a few people feel a little better about the future.
James Reimer’s biased opinion:
Reimer calls Rielly marker the "goal of the year".
