Joseph Woll made 22 saves to help the Toronto Maple Leafs stave off elimination with a 2-0 win against the Florida Panthers in Game 6 of their Eastern Conference semifinal series on Friday in Sunrise, Fla.

Game 7 of the best-of-seven series is Sunday night in Toronto.

The Maple Leafs have not advanced to the Eastern Conference finals since 2002, while the reigning Stanley Cup champion Panthers will be trying to make the conference finals for a third straight season.

Woll, starting his fifth straight game in place of Anthony Stolarz, who sustained an upper-body injury in the second period of Game 1, posted his first postseason shutout in his ninth playoff start. He has just two career regular-season shutouts in his four NHL seasons.

Auston Matthews and Max Pacioretty scored third-period goals for Toronto, which was coming off an embarrassing 6-1 home loss on Wednesday.

Sergei Bobrovsky made 15 saves for the Panthers, who had won three in a row to grab a 3-2 series lead.

After two scoreless periods, Matthews gave the Maple Leafs a 1-0 lead at 6:20 of the third.

Florida’s Aaron Ekblad missed an outlet pass from defense partner Gustav Forsling, and Mitch Marner recovered at the Panthers’ blue line. Marner quickly passed to Matthews, who skated into the left circle before beating Bobrovsky with a wrist shot.

It was the first goal of the series for Matthews, the team’s third-leading goal-scorer during the regular season (33), and just the second goal allowed by Bobrovsky in the past nine periods.

Pacioretty made it 2-0 when he got ahead of the defense and chipped in a centering pass from Bobby McMann to finish a rush at 14:17.

Despite having the only two power plays of the first period, the Panthers were outshot 7-2. Florida did not record a shot on goal over the final 14:17 of the opening period.

The Maple Leafs then went silent and did not produce a shot on goal the first 10-plus minutes of the second period.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Striding off the 15th green Saturday after taking the outright lead in the PGA Championship, Bryson DeChambeau was waving his arms and encouraging the fans at Quail Hollow to get louder.It looked like DeChambeau was ready to make a charge and grab the tournament by the throat heading into the final day. Then the Green Mile happened, and just like that DeChambeau’s lead was gone.AdvertisementThe popular Texan stumbled home Saturday with a bogey at 16 and a double bogey at 17, and will start Sunday six shots behind Scottie Scheffler after the world’s top-ranked player fired a 6-under 65 to take control of the tournament.

‘Scratch and claw until we win’: Comebacks are the difference for the 2025 Blue Jays

TORONTO — The 2025 Toronto Blue Jays are adamant they’re different.Toronto added a switch-hitting slugger, a Gold Glove second baseman, a Hall of Fame pitcher, and two new hitting coaches in the offseason. It was the kind of roster change required after a 74-88 season that saw Toronto finish last in the American League East.AdvertisementBut the biggest contrast isn’t on the 26-man roster or the coaching staff, the players say. It’s a feeling. Daulton Varsho calls it “mojo.” For Eric Lauer, it’s a “blue-collar mentality.” Whatever that difference is, the Blue Jays showed it in Saturday’s 2-1 walk-off win over the American League-leading Detroit Tigers. It was Toronto’s 12th comeback win of the season, third-most in baseball. It’s a fight the 2024 Blue Jays didn’t have, and one the 2025 team needs.“I think last year, it felt like we’d go […]
