Panthers head coach Paul Maurice knows what it's like to have the pressure that comes with being part of the Maple Leafs.

The Panthers find themselves back here, back in a Game 7, this time in the Eastern Conference Second Round against the Toronto Maple Leafs. They failed to win Game 6 on Friday at Amerant Bank Arena, shut out 2-0, with a chance to close out the Maple Leafs, and now sit tied in their best-of-7 series.

Before every series, Florida coach Paul Maurice talks to his team about what they need to do along the way to get ready for Game 7. The reason: If a series goes the distance — like this NHL second-round matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs has — he doesn’t want his club to be surprised.
