After failing to complete a first-round sweep in Ottawa, the Maple Leafs will look to eliminate the Senators on their home ice Tuesday.
The Senators just barely survived in Game 4, escaping with a 4-3 overtime victory to finally get on the board after a couple of painful losses. With just over two minutes left in the extra period, Ottawa defenseman Jake Sanderson kept the puck in his team's zone and whipped a wrist shot into the net, sending the series back to Toronto.
The Maple Leafs still hold a commanding 3-1 lead, but it has been an intense battle so far with three of the four games going to overtime. Can Toronto punch its ticket to the next round on Tuesday night? Or will Ottawa once again extend the series?
