The Maple Leafs haven’t made it to Round 3 in 23 years, and it will be a grind to change that against the Florida Panthers.

The Florida Panthers will play the Toronto Maple Leafs in the second round of the 2025 Stanley Cup playoffs for a spot in the Eastern Conference final. Game 1 of the best-of-7 series is set for 8 p.m. Monday at Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena.
