[dstevensonjr 278]

With Season 92 starting today, let's take a final look back at the S91 Continental Cup run for the Toronto Legion!

 

North American Semi-Finals

 

(2) Toronto Legion  vs. (3) Chicago Phoenix 

Toronto wins 4-0

 

Game 1

Score: 6-2 TOR 

Shots: 73-25 TOR 

First Star: Jimi Jaks (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Mac Atlas 

Synopsis: The series opener saw a first period that was tight on the scoreboard (2-2), but far from it on the shot clock (27-9) in a strong opening frame from the Legion. The Phoenix opened the scoring at 9:31 of the first on a goal by team MVP Scotty Sundin. The Legion bounced back from that goal against with a score from their own MVP, Mac Atlas, 2:16 after Chicago scored. The teams traded goals again, with Michael Shotter getting their first goal for Chicago on the powerplay at 18:18, and the Legion equalizing 10 seconds later on a goal by Jimi Jaks. Toronto would continue the strong play into the second period, and would be rewarded with Mac Atlas' second goal of the game at 4:02, the goal that would be the eventual game winner. At the end of 2, the scoreboard read 3-2 Toronto, and the shot clock was 45-17. The Legion onslaught continued in the third, as a trio of goals by Dens Oden, Diego Machado, and Jimi Jaks put the capper on a 6-2 Toronto Game 1 victory. Toronto outshot Chicago 28-8 in the third period, finishing the game with a 73-25 advantage. Toronto forwards Mac Atlas and Jimi Jaks both finished Game 1 with identical 2 G, 2 A statlines, combining for 23 shots and a +6 rating.

 

Game 2

Score: 6-1 TOR 

Shots: 41-32 TOR 

First Star: Tomas Sogaard (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Montgomery Burns 

Synopsis: Following up on their Game 1 victory, the Legion got off to a strong start in Game 2, with Tomas Sogaard opening the scoring just 1:54 into the game. Toronto would add 2 more goals in the first period from Montgomery Burns and Walter Fitzroy Jr. to lead the game 3-0 after one. While the scoreboard showed a considerable gap, the shot clock was much closer at 13-11 for Toronto. An early pair of goals from Tomas Sogaard (1:14) and Jimi Jaks (3:27) in the second period put the game out of reach, leading to a 5-0 Toronto lead after two. Chicago broke the shutout on the powerplay at the 5:40 mark of the third on a goal by Brodie Landry III. The scoring was capped midway through the third by Legion Captain Mac Atlas, ending a 6-1 Toronto win. The game saw rookie Diego Machado record 3 assists to tie for the lead in points with Tomas Sogaard.

 

Game 3

Score: 2-0 TOR 

Shots: 44-24 TOR 

First Star: Joel Castle (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Harry Callahan 

Synopsis: After two high scoring victories on home ice, the Legion headed on the road to Chicago to look to extend their series lead. Midway through the first period they were on the way, as rookie Harry Callahan notched his first goal of the playoffs at the 9:44 mark. The first period ended with the Legion up 1-0 in goals and 12-9 in shots. The second period was a goaltending battle, as the two teams combined for 3 powerplays and 25 shots, but goalies Joel Castle and Ryan Artyomov held the score at 1-0 after 2. The shots after two were 28-18 Toronto, who continued their hot play into the third. At the 6:53 mark of the third period, Toronto forward Jimi Jaks picked up his 4th goal of the playoffs to add the insurance marker and extend the Legion lead to 2-0. Goaltender Joel Castle kept the net empty the rest of the way, and made 24 saves en route to his first shutout of the playoffs, giving Toronto a 3-0 series lead.

 

Game 4

Score: 3-2 (OT) TOR 

Shots: 40-36 TOR 

First Star: Tomas Sogaard (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Tomas Sogaard 

Synopsis: With the chance to advance to the North American Final, the Legion came out strong in the first period, outshooting the Phoenix 14-8. A late first period goal by Dens Oden at the 17:21 mark gave Toronto the reward for their early efforts, leading 1-0 heading into the intermission. The shot clock in the second period saw more of the same, as the Legion outshot the Phoenix 18-12, for an overall advantage of 32-20. Unlike the first period, it was Chicago that got on the board tying the game 1-1 at the 16:18 mark on the powerplay goal by Sigma Freud. Chicago carried that late goal momentum into the third period scoring on the powerplay again just 1:33 into the frame. PJ Daniels had the marker to give Chicago their first lead in the series since late in the first period of game 1. The lead was short-lived as Toronto captain Mac Atlas picked up his 4th of the series a minute and twenty-five seconds later. That would do it for the scoring in regulation, as the teams headed to overtime for the first time in the series with Chicago facing elimination tied at 2. Midway through overtime, it was Legion forward Tomas Sogaard providing the heroics to clinch the series with a 3-2 OT victory at the 12:53 mark. Both goalies showed up in the game, with Joel Castle stopping 34 of 36 for the Legion and Ryan Artyomov saving 37 of 40 for the Phoenix. 

 

Series Recap

Overall score: 17-5 TOR 

Overall shots: 198-117 TOR 

Synopsis: This series wasn't as close as the season series was between the two teams, as it looked like Chicago had just run out of gas after a regular season that saw them right in the mix in the North American Conference the entire time. The early domination by Toronto set the tone for the series with the lopsided wins in games 1 and 2, and the Legion won a couple tight games in 3 and 4 to close it out. Balanced scoring and solid goaltending was a recipe for success for Toronto, which was their MO during the regular season. In the end, it was a strong start to the playoffs for the Legion, and an indication of things to come.

North American Finals

 

(1) Los Angeles Stars  vs. (2) Toronto Legion 

Toronto wins 4-1

 

Game 1

Score: 6-4 TOR 

Shots: 49-28 TOR 

First Star: Harry Callahan (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Mac Atlas 

Synopsis: The series gets off to an explosive start, with the teams combining for 6 goals in the first period. The Stars took a 1-0 lead just 52 seconds into the opening game on a goal by Adam Rage, kicking off the fireworks. Los Angeles doubled that lead to 2-0 at the 8:23 mark of the first, as Napoleon Dynamite notched their 5th goal of the postseason. The Stars were off to a flying start in this one, but they had no idea that the turntables were about to turn on them in a hurry. Within 2 minutes of the second goal for the Stars, the Legion had tied the game. Montgomery Burns picked up a goal at the 9:45 mark of the frame, with Harry Callahan notching a goal 30 seconds after to tie it up. Four and a half minutes after that goal, it was Callahan again for the Legion to give them their first lead of the game at 3-2. Tomas Sogaard closed the first period scoring for Toronto at the 17:16 mark, as the Legion scored 4 straight goals to take a 4-2 lead into the first intermission. Shots after the first were 22-13 for Toronto. A minute and forty-four seconds into the second period, the Stars powerplay clicked to get them back within 1 goal, with Jon Webber Jr picking up their 6th goal of the playoffs. It was the only scoring in the second period after the first period outburst. The shots heading into the third period were 35-20 for Toronto, continuing their advantage in that department. Toronto captain Mac Atlas scored twice in a span of a minute and a half to push the Toronto lead to 6-3 midway through the period, while the Stars Webber Jr added a goal at the 15:02 mark to close the scoring. Shots in the third were 14-8 for Toronto, finishing at a 49-28 overall advantage. 

 

Game 2

Score: 3-2 TOR 

Shots: 53-23 LA 

First Star: Dens Oden (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Tomas Sogaard 

Synopsis: Seeking a 2-0 series lead on the road, the Toronto Legion looked for an early start to game 2. Looking to avoid a 2-0 hole to start the series at home, the Los Angeles Stars had other ideas. The 12:48 mark of the first period saw LA take a 1-0 lead on a goal by Napoleon Dynamite. That's the way the first period ended, with the Stars leading and a 13-13 tie on the shot clock. Less than 5 minutes into the second period, the Stars extended their lead to 2-0 with Jon Webber Jr. capitalizing on LA's fifth powerplay of the game. The 13:51 mark of the second period saw the turning point of the game, as Toronto forward Jimi Jaks instigated a fight with Larry Abass Jr. of the Stars and was ejected from the game. The ensuing penalty for the Legion ended up turning into a blessing, as Dens Oden scored shorthanded to get Toronto on board and back within a goal at 2-1. A minute later, it was Montgomery Burns scoring for Toronto to tie the game at 2. Toronto's penalty trouble continued, leading to the Stars outshooting the Legion 23-5 in the second, but Legion goaltender Joel Castle stood tall to keep the game deadlocked at 2. Veteran forward Tomas Sogaard cashed in for Toronto at the 8:07 mark of the third period to give a 3-2 lead that held until the end of the game, while the Toronto penalty kill managed to kill 11 of the 12 powerplays that Los Angeles had in the game to wrap up a 2-0 road lead in the series.

 

Game 3

Score: 3-1 TOR 

Shots: 26-22 TOR 

First Star: Mac Atlas (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Mac Atlas 

Synopsis: The Legion headed home up 2-0 looking to make a statement and take a stranglehold of the series, and it was their captain who did just that to set the tone. 5:06 into the first period saw Mac Atlas open the scoring to put Toronto up 1-0. Less than 5 minutes later, at the 9:47 mark of the first, it was Atlas scoring again to extend the lead to 2-0. The first period ended that way, with the shots in the period 9-7 for LA. Midway through the second period, the 9:46 mark saw Tomas Sogaard extend the Legion lead to 3-0 with a powerplay goal, the only goal of the period. Shots in the second were 12-6 for Toronto. Looking to get back in the game quickly, the third period opened with a Stars goal by Sunglasses Joyo just 23 seconds into the period. Despite that early goal, Toronto held firm the rest of the way, finishing up strong with a 3-1 victory to push Los Angeles to the brink. The third period saw shots finish 7-7, as the Legion slowed the game down to wind down the clock.

 

Game 4

Score: 4-3 LA 

Shots: 37-37

First Star: Sunglasses Joyo (LA) 

Game Winning Goal: Todd Cooke 

Synopsis: On the road and facing elimination, the Los Angeles Stars needed to set the stage for a monumental comeback to make it to the Continental Cup. 6:49 into the first period, that climb got off on the wrong foot, as Legion Forward Jimi Jaks scored a powerplay goal to open the scoring. Not to be deterred, only 30 seconds later LA's Larry Abass Jr. bounced right back with a goal to tie the game at 1's. Looking to build some momentum off of that tying goal, the Stars lit the lamp again less than 5 minutes later. Sunglasses Joyo scored at the 11:34 mark of the first to give LA their first lead of the night. That lead turned out to be short lived, as a minute later it was Toronto rookie Harry Callahan potting one to even the score at 2. The first period would end that way tied at 2, with the shots skewed 17-11 in Toronto's favour. The second period saw the Legion on an early powerplay, and it was Montgomery Burns scoring with the man advantage less than 2 minutes in to give Toronto the lead back at 3-2. That early goal would turn out to be the only one of the second stanza, as Toronto headed into the third period with the chance to close out the series on home ice in a sweep. Shots in the second were 12-10 LA. The Stars headed into the third with their backs against the wall facing elimination, and would break through early on to tie the game up. The 3:44 mark of the period saw Sunglasses Joyo score to even up the game and give the Stars some hope. Less than 3 minutes later, Todd Cooke also scored to give the Stars the lead back in this back and forth game, now at 4-3. The score would stay that way until the end, with LA outshooting Toronto again 14-10. The Stars avoided elimination and handed the Legion their first loss of the playoffs to head back home down 3-1.

 

Game 5

Score: 6-2 TOR 

Shots: 49-33 TOR 

First Star: Mac Atlas (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Mac Atlas 

Synopsis: The Legion opened up Game 5 with an eye on ensuring that they didn't give momentum to the Stars in the series following LA's game 4 road victory. Despite a strong start on the shot clock for the Legion, it was the Stars who opened the scoring at the 6:38 mark. Todd Cooke got on the board for LA to give them the early lead and some quick hope to extend the series. Toronto's Harry Callahan replied to even the score at 1 at 14:27 of the first. A late goal by LA's Napoleon Dynamite with just over a minute to go in the period gave the Stars the lead back heading into the break. Shots in the first were 17-9 for Toronto, a sign of things to come in the game. Opening the second period with a quick powerplay goal less than thirty seconds in was the Legion's Tomas Sogaard, who tied the game quickly for Toronto. The bulk of the second period was played at a 2-2 deadlock, until a late goal by Mac Atlas put Toronto ahead for what would be the rest of the night. The Legion headed into the second intermission leading 3-2 on the board and 35-23 on the shot clock. The third period was tight until a stretch of five minutes put the game out of reach. Beginning at the 9:14 point of the third, Montgomery Burns, Bobby Bob, and Jimi Jaks all notched goals for Toronto to give a 6-2 lead. Toronto once again outshot Los Angeles in the third, and finished with a 49-33 advantage in that department on the night. The Legion closed the series out on the road, similarly to how they ended the Chicago series.

 

Series Recap

Overall score: 21-13 TOR 

Overall shots: 184-173 TOR 

Synopsis: This was a tight series on the scoreboard, as the only game with a goal differential greater than two was the final game. Toronto's captain Mac Atlas potted 3 of their 4 game winning goals in the series, furthering his case for Playoff MVP early on. Goaltender Joel Castle also came up big in multiple games, most notably the lopsided shot clock in Game 2. Toronto's strong effort on the road continued in this series, including the final game of the series to close it out. Wrapping the series up in 5 games was a bit of a surprise for the Legion, as this series looked like one that would likely go the distance based on how the two teams played each other this year. On the same night that the Legion closed out their series against LA, their Continental Cup opponents closed out their own series, setting up a series between two of the original VHL teams in Helsinki and Toronto.

Continental Cup Finals

 

(2) Toronto Legion  vs. (5) Helsinki Titans 

Toronto wins 4-2

 

Game 1

Score: 4-2 HSK 

Shots: 48-38 HSK 

First Star: Daryl Dixon (HSK) 

Game Winning Goal: Daryl Dixon 

Synopsis: The battle for the Continental Cup got underway in Toronto, in a series that was expected to be a tight one. With both teams looking to set the tone early in the game, we saw a pair of goals less than a minute apart. Just less than five minutes into the game, Montgomery Burns opened the scoring in the first game of the final for Toronto to take a 1-0 lead. Almost immediately, it was Daryl Dixon for Helsinki who replied to even up the game quickly 1-1. The rest of the first remained a tight battle, as the teams skated into the intermission with that same tie. Shots in the first were almost even at 13-12 for Toronto. The second period was a much different story, as Helsinki looked to take control early on, scoring less than a minute in. It was Kronchy Kardashian at the 57 second mark of the second to give Helsinki their first lead of the final. A little later on, it was the second of the game for Daryl Dixon at the 6:29 mark to go up 3-1. Toronto's captain Mac Atlas scored with just over four minutes to go in the second to narrow the gap to 3-2, and that's the way the second would end. The second period saw a hefty shot advantage for Helsinki, outshooting Toronto 21-10 in the period. The two teams played a tight third period, with no scoring until Landon Wolanin notched an empty netter for the Titans with 2 seconds to go to cap off a 4-2 Helsinki win. Shots in the third were even at 15 a piece, but the Titans big second period tilted the shots in their favour to 48-38 during the game, winning the all important first game on the road.

 

Game 2

Score: 3-2 HSK 

Shots: 43-30 TOR 

First Star: Daryl Dixon (HSK) 

Game Winning Goal: Pierre Emile Bouchard 

Synopsis: Game 2 opened with the Titans looking to gain momentum following their Game 1 road win, while the Legion were looking to salvage a split on home ice to open the series. 6:11 into the first period, it was Chip Stone getting on the board for the Titans to establish that momentum. Stone's goal ended up being the only goal of the period, with Helsinki leading 1-0 after one. Shots in the first were 15-10 for Toronto, who were left empty handed for their efforts. A handful of minutes into the second period, there was a rapid fire of goals, with three goals in the game coming in the span of two minutes and twelve seconds. Daryl Dixon cashed in on the powerplay to extend the Titans lead at the 4:37 mark, and then less than a minute later it was Pierre Emile Bouchard at even strength to give Helsinki a 3-0 lead. A Legion powerplay goal by Tomas Sogaard at 6:49 got one goal back for Toronto, who finished the second period trailing 3-1 and in desperate need of a couple of goals to avoid falling into a 2-0 series hole at home. Shots in the second were tight, finishing at 16-15 for Helsinki. As the third got underway, the Legion began to push to get within one, but it wasn't until the 13:50 mark on the powerplay that they were able to. Rookie forward Diego Machado notched the goal to get Toronto within one, but that's as close as the Legion would get. A strong third period on the shot clock led to a 13-4 Toronto advantage in the period, and a 43-30 edge overall, but the Legion were left searching for answers losing back-to-back games for the first time in the playoffs, both on home ice.

 

Game 3

Score: 4-2 TOR 

Shots: 39-24 HSK 

First Star: Jimi Jaks (TOR)  

Game Winning Goal: Jimi Jaks 

Synopsis: Trailing the series 2-0 and heading on the road, the Legion were looking to bounce back and get into this series. They did not get the start that they needed. Just thirty seconds into the game, it was Helsinki leading scorer Daryl Dixon getting the Titans on the board. The Legion got an equalizer only a few minutes later, as veteran forward Tomas Sogaard scored on the powerplay to even the game up. That is the way that the first period would end, tied at 1. Shots were also even at 9-9 during the first in this pivotal game. Another early goal, this time 1:27 into the second by Pierre Emile Bouchard on the powerplay put Helsinki back in front 2-1. With the Legion trailing in the game and in the series, it was time for the Jimi Jaks show to come to town. A pair of goals at 8:35 and 12:30 in the second gave the Legion the lead, in a potential series turning point. The second finished up 3-2 for Toronto, while Helsinki pushed back on the shot clock thanks to a 15-10 second period advantage. The Titans pressed hard in the third to tie the game, but Toronto goaltender Joel Castle stood on his head to frustrate Helsinki. At the 17:24 mark, it was Jimi Jaks for the Legion to cap off his hat trick and a Game 3 win to get Toronto within one in the series trailing 2-1. Shots in the third were 15-5 for Helsinki, with the Titans also holding a 39-24 advantage overall. Despite that lopsided shot total, Castle and Jaks combined to get Toronto back in it.

 

Game 4

Score: 4-2 TOR 

Shots: 49-32 TOR 

First Star: Tomas Sogaard (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Tomas Sogaard 

Synopsis: On the line for Game 4? The difference between a 3-1 lead for Helsinki in the series, or a 2-2 tie heading back to Toronto for Game 5. In an all important swing game in the series, it was the Titans who received a miracle in the form of a goal just 7 seconds into the game by Daryl Dixon. Undeterred by the early goal against, it was Toronto getting on the board on the powerplay at the 4:36 mark on a blueliner goal by Bobby Bob to tie the game up at ones. The first period would end that way, with the Legion holding a solid shot advantage of 14-6. The second period saw the Legion with another early strike on the powerplay, as Tomas Sogaard scored just over three minutes in to give Toronto a 2-1 lead. A response from Helsinki came only a few minutes later, as Landon Wolanin tied the game back up at 2. The back and forth scoring continued quickly, with Tomas Sogaard cashing in again to retake the lead in this game 3-2. The high event second period saw the action continue, with Toronto captain Mac Atlas scoring at 12:03 to extend the lead to 4-2. The period ended with that score, a period that saw many goals and shots by both teams. Toronto led the shot battle 20-18 in the period, and the teams headed into the third looking to continue the offensive show. The goaltenders in the third had other ideas, as Joel Castle for Toronto and Fuukka Rask for Helsinki stopped every shot in the period to keep the scorers at bay. Shots finished 15-8 for Toronto in the third, and 49-32 overall in the game. The series was knotted up 2-2 with both teams winning both of their road games to set up a best of 3 series to capture a title.

 

Game 5

Score: 4-2 TOR 

Shots: 51-24 TOR 

First Star: Harry Callahan (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Walter Fitzroy Jr. 

Synopsis: A pivotal Game 5 in Toronto was set, with the series tied up at 2. The winner of this game would move one win away from a title, while the loser risked facing elimination twice. For the fourth game in a row, it was Helsinki getting the game started on the right foot, as leading scorer Daryl Dixon potted a goal less than five minutes into the period. That early lead for the Titans lasted the bulk of the period, but a late goal at the 17:08 mark by defender Bobby Bob sent the game into the intermission tied at one. Shots in the first were 16-10 for the Legion. At the start of the second, it was another early goal for the team with a strong knack for them. Chip Stone cashed in for Helsinki just 1:19 into the period to give the Titans the lead again, one that would hold through the period. Despite trailing in the game, the Legion held a massive advantage on the shot clock, outshooting the Titans 22-6 in the period, and 38-16 overall in the game after two. Toronto would take a page out of the Helsinki playbook to start the third period, as rookie winger Harry Callahan scored on the powerplay less than two minutes into the period to tie the game up at two. 5:24 into the period, it was another rookie, defender Walter Fitzroy Jr. scoring for Toronto to give the Legion their first lead of the game at 3-2. The scoring wrapped up with 26 seconds left in the game, as Callahan notched an empty netter to cap off a 4-2 victory for Toronto. Shots in the third were 13-8 for Toronto, with a 51-24 overall advantage in the game. With a postseason of scoring by their big forwards, it was the unexpected source of offense from the rookies and the blueline that moved Toronto to within a win of their first Cup win since S66.

 

Game 6

Score: 2-1 (OT) TOR 

Shots: 54-47 TOR 

First Star: Joel Castle (TOR) 

Game Winning Goal: Tomas Sogaard 

Synopsis: Game 6 provided an opportunity for Toronto to avoid a winner take all Game 7, while Helsinki looked to continue the series and head back on the road. Once again, and for the fifth game in a row, it was an early goal by Helsinki that got this game started. Owen Lazaro scored at the 3:39 mark of the first to establish an early lead for the Titans, giving them hope of a series extension. Following the early opening goal for the Titans, the fans in the building were treated to a goaltending duel of epic proportions between Joel Castle and Fuukka Rask. The first period ended 1-0 for Helsinki, with the shots 14-12 for the Titans. The second period saw no scoring, with Castle and Rask going save for save with each other. Shots in the second were 16-10 for Toronto, with the goalies stopping 51 of the 52 shots in the game after two The third period saw back and forth action, with the goalies remaining the stars of the show. It wasn't until late in the period that somebody finally beat one of the goalies again. A Tomas Sogaard shot hit the post, with Toronto defender Jimmy MacElroy picking up the rebound and burying it at the 18:50 mark of the third to tie the game at ones with his first goal of the playoffs. The shots were 17-17 in the third, and we headed to overtime tied 1-1. Midway through the overtime, Toronto capped the comeback to end the series. Jimmy MacElroy intercepted a pass in the defensive zone before chipping the puck out to Montgomery Burns. Burns got the puck over to Tomas Sogaard, who skated it through the neutral zone and into the Titans end, where he beat the goaltender on a wrist shot at the 9:49 mark to win the Continental Cup for Toronto. The goaltenders in this game stopped 98 of 101 shots combined, truly making this an epic battle of the tenders.

 

Series Recap

Overall score: 18-14 TOR 

Overall shots: 259-220 TOR 

Synopsis: The Titans gave Toronto their biggest scare of the playoffs going up 2-0 in Toronto before the Legion came roaring back with 4 straight wins to capture the title. This series had a bit of everything from both teams, moments where the goaltending was spectacular, moments where the special teams carried each team, and moments where both the stars and the unheralded players contributed. Definitely an entertaining series, and an entertaining final.

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Overall Recap

 

What a run for Toronto, who go 12-3 in the playoffs, outscoring their opponents 56-32. The back to back losses to Helsinki in the final were the only time that the Legion lost twice in a row in the playoffs. Interestingly, all three series clinching wins for the Legion came on the road in the playoffs. The battle for Playoff MVP between Mac Atlas and Joel Castle was a tough one, and I'm not sure that I would have been able to make the choice myself. Atlas and Jimi Jaks finished the playoffs 1st and 2nd in points/20 minutes, driving the offensive success for Toronto. The top unit of Atlas/Jaks/Callahan/Bob/Fitzroy Jr. all finished at the top of the playoff plus/minus list. Atlas and Sogaard led the VHL in game winning goals with four each.
