Nylander would be my HM if not for his terrible first two periods but he was huge.

The ROR line and Rielly deserve mentions

Leafs best players being their best players ...

 

[ZBBM]

Not really any clear choices so I'll go with ROR winning lots of faceoffs down the stretch.

ROR
Rielly got them on the board first

 

[Guilt Trip]

McCabe
Rielly

 

[rdowdall]

Rielly
Knies

 

[louisstamos]

Not a lot of players were bad, but no one really stood out.  I'll go Rielly, HM: Matthews.  At least they scored.

Sammy
HM Matthews

Hurts to not give the OT/series winner a vote but Matthews was dominant

 

[Guilt Trip]

Matthews
Brodie

This...there are many choices. Sammy was amazing but Matthews was a beast all night in all zones. Brodie was incredible tonight.
