LIVE NHL 2024 Playoff Play By Play Commentary Toronot Maple Leafs @ Boston Bruins Game 7
5#CSP #NHL #LEAFSNATION
To get where you want to go in life, you usually have to triumph over your greatest obstacles. For over a decade now, no greater obstacle has been hanging over this franchise than a Game 7 in Boston. Tonight, the Leafs get yet another opportunity to slay the dragon. This is an opportunity the Leafs have earned. After going down 3-1 in the series, the Leafs have gotten full marks in back-to-back wins to keep their season alive, tightening right up defensively, getting stability in net from Joseph Woll, and scoring just enough to win both games. Sheldon Keefe even tinkered with a winning lineup, swapping out Ryan Reaves for Noah Gregor and moving up Kampf and Dewar to play alongside Jarnkrok in a checking matchup role against the Bruins third line that has given them some fits this series, and it turned out to be an inspired move. Now, it’s possible Auston Matthews is back for Game 7, and they will have to shake things up yet again if that’s the case (and yes, of course, they should sit someone like Noah Gregor so that Matthews can play). If he’s still not ready — and Sheldon Keefe indicated as much — then it should be business as usual for a Leafs team that has won two straight and swung momentum in this series. The winning formula is there regardless of who is playing. On the Bruins side, it looks like Danton Heinen and Andrew Peeke might be back. Lineup changes are expected on their side, given their losses, and they even changed their morning skate routine to try to shake out of their rut. They are reeling right now, and the first goal in this game is all the more important, given where both teams stand.
