Jim Montgomery has no ‘second guesses’ over starting Linus Ullmark in Game 2

The Bruins kept their goalie rotation in place on Monday night against Toronto — opting to roll with Linus Ullmark in net for Game 2 of their first-round bout at TD Garden.

Montgomery’s decision to swap out Jeremy Swayman in place of his teammate falls in line with Boston’s season-long plan. With Ullmark getting the nod, Boston has alternated goalies for the past 27 games.

But Montgomery’s lineup reshuffle didn’t result in a commanding 2-0 series lead for Boston — with the Maple Leafs skating off the Garden ice with a 3-2 victory and a deadlocked 1-1 series.
