We have seen the good in the bad from this Toronto team this year, but At home this season, the Maple Leafs finished with a 22-15-4 record overall and there is no doubt the Maple Leafs fans are going to be fired up after paying $500 a pop for nosebleed tickets at Scotiabank tonight! The Maple Leafs offense is ranked 2nd in the NHL, while the defense is ranked 19th. The Maple Leafs defense was the difference on Monday, but in this game, the offense is going to need to have a huge game. The Maple Leafs think every year is the year, and maybe the win in Game 2 was just what they needed to boost their chances at winning the Stanley Cup. Can they keep the motivation alive tonight at home and grabbing another win or they fall victim to this deadly Bruins defense?

I wonder how the Bruins are gonna hold up after losing home ice well we’re gonna find out! After the first game, the Bruins looked to be in good shape, and they were able to secure the 5-1 victory. Jake DeBrusk had a strong game, scoring two goals and adding an assist. Jeremy Swayman was in goal, and he dominated, saving 35 of the 36 shots. On Monday thought after the Bruins were leading 2-1 at the end of the first period, they didn’t score another goal, and that led to the defeat. Morgan Geekie and David Pastrnak were the two goalscorers for the Bruins. Linus Ullmark started in goal and saved 30 of the 33 shots that he faced. The Bruins also had 29 shots on goal. We know they’ve been good on the road all year, but are they gonna be able to hold up at Scotiabank tonight?

Charlie Coyle has scored a goal in each of the Bruins' last four Game 3s of an Eastern Conference First Round series.

💎 BRUINS / MAPLE LEAFS OVER 5.5 -140

This looks like it could be a shootout and be higher scoring game. There were only five goals scored on Monday, but this game is going to be different. The Bruins' offense is ranked 12th, but I am still not sold on this Toronto defense, especially after the first game. The Maple Leafs offense is going to continue their success scoring, and they are going to get out to a fast start here. The Maple Leafs and Bruins are both going to score at least three goals here, which means there will be at least seven goals scored total.
