Maple Leafs defenceman Jake Gardiner continues to take heat for his role in the team’s Game 7 loss to the Boston Bruins on Wednesday night. Gardiner admitted after the game that he’d made too many mistakes and calls the performance “up there with the worst” moments of his life. The Game 1 game, the penalty kill didn’t get the job done. STILL IN THE GAME: The Leafs said defenceman Travis Dermott and forward Andreas Johnsson would rejoin the Marlies for the American Hockey League’s Calder Cup playoffs. CAPTAIN TALK: The Maple Leafs remain in no rush to name a captain, coach Mike Babcock said.
