The Toronto Maple Leafs will try to stretch their winning streak to five games Saturday night when they host the Boston Bruins, a long-time rival they have not played in nearly two years. The Bruins defeated the host Maple Leafs 4-2 on Nov. 15, 2019, the last time the teams met before scheduling was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Each team enters the game Saturday on a positive note as the Maple Leafs play the fourth of a five-game homestand. The Maple Leafs are coming off a comeback 2-1 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday with John Tavares tying the game in the final minute of regulation and William Nylander shooting the winner. The Bruins, who have won two straight, defeated the visiting Detroit Red Wings 5-1 on Thursday with Patrice Bergeron scoring his first four goals of the season and Brad Marchand adding four assists.

Maple Leafs goaltender Jack Campbell made important saves in the third period to keep the Lightning lead at one. His focus quickly shifted to Saturday in what should also be a stern test.

Cassidy figured it was only a matter of time before Bergeron started to score. It was Bergeron’s seventh career hat trick and the second four-goal night of his career.
