Not to be dramatic, but the Toronto Maple Leafs might actually be cursed.The Buds were blanked in another blown opportunity to close out a playoff series on Tuesday night, bringing the Battle of Ontario to a nail-biting 3-2 lead for the Leafs after what seemed like an unbreakable 3-0 series advantage.The team has now posted an unthinkably terrible 2-14 record in series-clinching playoff games since 2004, following a 4-0 loss to the Ottawa Senators before a stunned crowd at Scotiabank Arena.Tuesday's loss proved just the latest chapter in what has become a saga of the Leafs' long-term struggles in close-out games.Like the years-long choke fest it contributed to, the game was replete with missed opportunities, frustrations, and the team's stars seemingly vanishing off the surface of the ice when it counted the most.Game 6 will bring the series back to Ottawa on Thursday, where the Leafs will have a third consecutive opportunity to close out the first round.Should...

It could be said that there are two unofficial Opening Days for Toronto Blue Jays games.Of course, there's the actual Opening Day, where Toronto plays their first home regular season game of the year, usually in March when temperatures are still hovering around zero.And then, somewhere between four and eight weeks later, there's the second, perhaps more anticipated, Opening Day, where the Rogers Centre roof is opened for the first time each season.Famously known as the world's first retractable roof on a sporting venue when it opened in 1989, the Rogers Centre's precipitation control mechanism may not be as awe-inspiring as it once was.But it's still a staple of Toronto culture, and could be making its debut this week.
