The loss means the Maple Leafs are 1-13 in postseason games where they could eliminate an opponent since Matthews, Marner and William Nylander started playing together in 2016 -- 1-12 since John Tavares signed a seven-year, $77 million contract July 1, 2018, the center missing three of those games with an injury.

Linus Ullmark made 29 saves for the first playoff shutout of his career as the Ottawa Senators edged the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-0 on Tuesday night to cut the deficit in the teams’ first-round series to 3-2.

The 28-year-old shook off the Rielly hit and wired his first career postseason goal through a Tkachuk screen and past Maple Leafs goalie Anthony Stolarz at 3:46 of the second period. It would hold up as the game-winning goal.
