"Discipline is in the eye of the beholder in the NHL.

While the Leafs were back-slapping on Tuesday for making it through a second game against the Islanders without needing a penalty kill — "phenomenal" was how coach Ron Wilson put it — New York players were livid at how Toronto transgressions escaped notice of the officials.
