The Boston Bruins got a huge 5-3 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena on Saturday night. The win extended the Bruins winning streak and, most importantly, set a division rival back in the standings.
The Bruins’ make-shift lineup featured several fill-ins for injured players. Among them, Elias Lindholm and Casey Mittelstadt are out with injuries. Meanwhile, Charlie McAvoy missed the game for personal reasons.
Those absences led to former Toronto Maple Leafs player Alex Steeves to hit the ice. But it was another former Leaf that made his mark in the game.
