Brad Marchand expected the Bruins' Stanley Cup Playoffs matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs to be a battle, but this is not quite the style of play he is accustomed to seeing from them. “They're playing a really good, playoff-type game right now,” the B's captain said Tuesday, per theScore.com's Kayla Douglas. The series is even at one game apiece after Boston fell 3-2 to Toronto in Game 2 on Monday. A stellar effort by goals leader Auston Matthews, along with the impressive defense Marchand references, enabled the Leafs to outscore their rival 2-0 after the first period ..read more

Golden Knights newcomers Tomas Hertl and Noah Hanifin have finally gotten in a game with captain Mark Stone. After an impressive first game all together in the NHL playoffs, they are looking for a 2-0 series lead over Western Conference top seed Dallas even before going home to Vegas. “It's good for chemistry,” Hanifin said ..read more

After relinquishing three goals on 33 shots, Ullmark likely will be back on the bench Wednesday for Game 3 of this first-round series at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto. A start for Swayman (35 saves on 36 shots in Game 1) would stand as the 28th straight game in which the Bruins alternated goalies. Regardless of what happens in Toronto, the goalie-rotation discourse is destined to carry on for however long the playoff campaign lasts. “We're not playing fast enough,” coach Jim Montgomery said after his team's first loss to Toronto all season ..read more

Brad Marchand has long been a polarizing figure in the NHL. In a critical Game 1 sequence, Domi reacted proactively to Marchand's provocations. Domi's inability to control his reactions, despite a warning from the referee at the start of the game, highlights the impact Marchand can have when opponents engage with him on his terms. Perhaps the most optimal tactic the Maple Leafs can adopt is simple yet challenging ..read more

The Toronto Maple Leafs are preparing to travel back home after the first two games in their first-round series against the Boston Bruins. The series is tied 1-1, and with the team coming off their biggest win of the last season last night, head coach Sheldon Keefe provided an update on William Nylander ..read more

Max Domi held the puck inside the Toronto defensive zone, waiting for Auston Matthews to make his move. Like a quarterback spotting an open receiver, Domi sent the puck sailing over the neutral zone and hit Matthews in stride. In one motion, the NHL's goal-scoring leader gloved the puck with his left hand and dropped it in front of his stick, then skated in on Bruins goalie Linus Ullmark and beat him to snap a third-period tie ..read more

For the first time in 2023-24, the Boston Bruins lost a hockey game to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday night. Peeke is week-to-week, Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery confirmed on Tuesday, and thus won't be an option for at least Games 3 and 4 in Toronto. The former Columbus Blue Jackets blue liner suffered an apparent finger injury in the second period of Game 2, and managed just 10:20 of time on ice before being forced out of the contest. With Peeke on the shelf for at least the next two, it's possible that either Parker Wotherspoon or Mason Lohrei will replace the 26-year-old on the back ..read more
