The Bruins look to eliminate the Maple Leafs on Tuesday night in Game 5 of their first-round series
The Boston Bruins host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night in Game 5 of their first-round playoff series. The Bruins lead the series three games to one and can send the Maple Leafs packing with another win. The Bruins lost home-ice advantage when they fell in Game 2 by a score of 3-2, but they won both games in Toronto to take control of the series. Brad Marchand has led the way as he has a team-best three goals and five assists. He is one of four players who have scored multiple goals in the postseason.

The Maple Leafs will be looking to stave off elimination, but they may be without star Auston Matthews who is still battling an illness. He was able to play through it in Game 3 and part of Game 4, but was pulled in the third period and didn’t return.
“Of course, we’re hopeful that he’s available and feeling good and back to himself,” coach Sheldon Keefe said. “That’s what we’re hopeful for. But we’ve played well with guys out in the past. We started the series without [William Nylander] and had to deal with that. But we’ll see what tomorrow brings.”
The Leafs are still hopeful to have him back as they look to avoid being eliminated in the first round for the seventh time in the last eight years.
