The Maple Leafs are coming in to face the team that finished ahead of them in the final season standings in the Atlantic. However, the Maple Leafs are coming into the game with a horrible end to the season that saw the team go 1-4 in the final 5.

The Bruins, for their part were not much better when it came to the way they finished out the year. The Bruins were able to finish the season out with a 2-3 record in their final five of the year and that is something the Bruins need to change. The regular season saw the Maple Leafs score 3.49 goals a game. The defense for the Maple Leafs allowed 3.04 goals a game on the year. The power play was able to convert at a clip of 21.8%, but managed to kill off 79.9% of the opponents power plays.

For the Bruins the offense has managed to score at a clip of 3.13 goals a game. When it comes to playing defense the Bruins have only allowed 2.59 goals a game. The Bruins have ended up converting on the power play at a clip of 25.9% and have managed to kill off 79.9%

The Bruins are a team that had to battle back to make the playoffs later in the season. The Maple Leafs for their part looked good and then all of a sudden seemed to have hit something that made the team fade and look sloppy in the way they were playing. That definitely explained the way the Maple Leafs closed out the season and that is going to be another issue for the Maple Leafs in this game is sloppy play which cost them the game. Final Score Prediction, Boston Bruins win 4-2.
