Two days, two games against one of the best offensive teams in the league. Austin Matthews is out, but Toronto still managed to put up 4 goals the other night without him.
At the beginning of the season I thought the Leafs were poised to make deep playoff run. After seeing their defense/goaltending, I feel less confident about the “deep” part of that. The hope for the next two games is that the Bruins are able to exploit that and outscore them. Win or lose, I see these being close, high scoring games.
Pez, on the other hand, said on the latest The Option Skate (available now for Patreon subscribers and Wednesday for everyone else), that the Bruins would win one of these games by a margin of 3 goals.
