The Toronto Maple Leafs and the First Round: A Love Story... Not Really
Ah, the Toronto Maple Leafs and the first round of the playoffs. A tale as old as time, or at least as old as the founding of the NHL (fun fact: the Leafs are an Original Six team, which means they've been around for a while). This passionate fanbase bleeds blue and white, but when it comes to the first hurdle of the playoffs, things get a little... dramatic.

How Dramatic Are We Talking?
Let's just say, if the first round was a reality TV show, it would be titled "Toronto vs. Disappointment: A Neverending Cycle." We're talking multiple exits in the first round, more heartbreak than a rom-com marathon, and enough early playoff exits to make a mathematician cry.
QuickTip: Ask yourself what the author is trying to say.

Now, for the real question. Buckle up, because this might sting a little. The short, not-so-sweet answer is: a lot. If you're looking for a specific number, you might need a calculator. Let's just say there's a reason why "first round exit" is practically synonymous with "Maple Leafs playoffs."
QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.
Wait, is There Any Hope?
Hey, don't lose all faith just yet! The Leafs are a talented team, and they have made it past the first round before (shocking, I know). There's always next year, right? Right? nervous laughter
Tip: Revisit challenging parts.
