Toronto Maple Leafs vs Boston Bruins

As the playoff spotlight shines upon the ice, the Toronto Maple Leafs step onto the rink with a regular-season record of 46-26-10, aiming to reclaim past glory. Despite a historic drought since their last Stanley Cup triumph in 1967, the Leafs boast an impressive offensive prowess, securing the second spot in the NHL for goals per game. However, their defensive fortitude is put to the test, ranking 21st in goals against per game.

In contrast, the Boston Bruins skate into the postseason fray from a commendable second-place finish in the Atlantic Division, concluding the regular season with a record of 47-20-15. While not among the top scorers in the league, the Bruins hold their ground with a respectable 14th rank in goals scored per game. Their defensive prowess shines through, positioned sixth in the NHL for fewest goals allowed per game this season.
