Bruins look to deepen Maple Leafs’ early season troubles on Tuesday night

No one would've batted an eye if the Boston Bruins had lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night. The Bruins had won five straight games, the Maple Leafs were waiting for them at home for a big Hockey Night in Canada matchup, and the Bruins took a hit with the absences of Charlie McAvoy and Casey Mittelstadt. For most teams, it'd be an easy home-ice win.

The Maple Leafs are unlike most teams. They make a habit out of losing games they should win to send their fans into misery, and it happened again on Saturday night.
