Braden Holtby (5) - The Vezina Trophy finalist was brilliant to close out the series, with great saves on Tyler Bozak, James van Riemsdyk, Auston Matthews, Zach Hyman and William Nylander. He saved his best game for the last one of the series.
Frederik Andersen (5) - He faced 26 high quality chances in this game and was the only reason this game was close. He almost stole the game for the Leafs with too many big saves to list. But it was a brilliant performance that he put forth - one of the best of the playoffs so far.
Craig Anderson (4) - Another great performance from Craig, as his patience in the net paid off with big saves on Drew Stafford, David Backes, Tim Schaller and David Pasternak.
Tuukka Rask (3) - He came up short and overplayed a back door play on the game winner by Clarke MacArthur, with big saves on Derick Brassard, Mark Stone and Viktor Stalberg.
