As a Canes fan, that was just amazing to watch. Not only because of Ayers which is an incredible story itself, but that entire 3rd period the Canes played some of the most inspiring hockey you will probably every see. Guys were diving all over the place in front of Ayers, it was like some insane prevent defense and it worked. Plus they scored twice in the period. Leafs literally looked like they gave up halfway through the third. That PP was so bad they were getting booed like crazy in that building. Another point was that the Leafs did not pull the goalie at any point, which looked more like a statement from the coach.
Incredible story, something you will only see in the NHL.
