The Toronto Maple Leafs are doing that thing again, and let's not pretend any of us are actually shocked after what would otherwise have been a stunning blowout 6-1 loss in Game 5.
Maple Leafs fans seemed confident just a few days earlier when the team held a commanding 2-0 series lead over the Florida Panthers in Round 2 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Headlines will tell you of shocked fans and stunned crowds, but that's not how fans feel so much as how one would expect them to feel.
Leafs fans may have been stunned in years like 2013 and shocked in years like 2021.
The permanent home of the Stanley Cup that just can't seem to get custody for one summer.
