Incredible Stat Shows Just How Major of a Step the Maple Leafs Took Last Night
For the first time since 2004, the Maple Leafs have finally passed the first round. In a really tight series, they managed to beat the Lightning in six games.
With the last win, head coach Sheldon Keefe entered a prestigious category of people within the Leafs' organization.
A surprising statistic was released about him.

We all know that it took a really long time for the Leafs to end their drought. But what is really attached to this?
This fact brings another perspective on how glorious their accomplishment is.
"Sheldon Keefe is the only living person who has coached the Toronto Maple Leafs to a playoff series win.
Red Kelly, who passed in 2019, had been the last surviving among Leafs (head) coaches to win at least one playoff series."
This is surreal.
Soon, he'll be the only living person to coach the Maple Leafs in the second round.
Do you think he can lead them even further in the playoffs?
