BOSTON — The Bruins and Maple Leafs provided everything you could have hope for with a Saturday night divisional rivalry game that we see so few of these days.
Bad blood, 10-bell saves, big hits, star turns, lead changes. Even an honest to goodness fight. It had it all. And for the TD Garden faithful, it had a happy ending.
Matt Grzelcyk blasted a a slap shot past Toronto goalie Matt Murray with 1:16 left in the third period to lift the Bruins to a wildly entertaining 4-3 win on Causeway Street.
