The NHL playoffs are heating up with intense matchups, particularly in the Battle of Florida and the Battle of Ontario. The Florida Panthers showcased their strength against the Tampa Bay Lightning, with Matthew Tkachuk making a significant impact by returning from injury and contributing two goals in the opener. The Lightning struggled defensively, allowing multiple deflections that led to goals for Florida. Meanwhile, the Toronto Maple Leafs are up 2-0 in their series, but there's skepticism about their ability to maintain consistency, especially with their star players needing to step up in crucial moments.

The Minnesota Wild also tied their series against the Vegas Golden Knights, with Kirill Kaprizov proving to be a key player with his playmaking abilities. As the playoffs progress, fantasy implications are becoming clearer, especially regarding players like Tkachuk, Kaprizov, and Kyle Connor of the Winnipeg Jets, who are all expected to be key contributors going forward.

The latest Cal Tire Goals of the Week spotlighted standout performances from NHL superstars, showcasing their unrivaled skills.
