Quick Summary

The Toronto Maple Leafs lost their fourth straight home game to the Colorado Avalanche with a final score of 6-3 on Tuesday night at Scotiabank Arena. Despite some spirited play, the team’s poor performance continued, particularly from goalie Sergei Bobrovsky who allowed three or more goals for the 12th time in his last 13 starts. Defenceman Darren Raddysh scored his first goal since joining the Leafs, but it wasn’t enough to overcome Colorado’s late-game insurance and empty-netter goals.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
