Game Preview

The Toronto Maple Leafs again have home-ice advantage when they meet the Tampa Bay Lightning in a first-round opener in the NHL playoffs Tuesday night.

And this time the Maple Leafs hope they can cash in that advantage to break what has become an epic succession of postseason failure.

The Maple Leafs are in the playoffs for the seventh straight season but have not advanced beyond the first round since 2004. And despite being one of the Original Six franchises — and having 13 Stanley Cups to their credit — they’re looking for their first Stanley Cup since 1967.
