    Three areas where Bruins must improve to eliminate Leafs in Game 6

    Improvement in these three areas would give the Bruins a great chance to eliminate the Leafs in Game 6.

    The best of David Pastrnak returned, and the Bruins benefitted

    Pastrnak, with help from Brad Marchand, potted his second of the series with 42 seconds to go in the second, boosting the Bruins to a 3-0 lead over the Leafs. Pastrnak's goal was the night's jawbreaker, and possibly the series-maker, helping to propel the Bruins to a two-game lead in the series. The Leafs, their nerves frayed, now will have to sweep three games to continue their season. For all his goal-scoring power and might, Pastrnak also had but one power-play strike across the 37 games leading to faceoff in Game 4.

    Bruins' stars shine brightest in Game 4 to push Maple Leafs to the brink of elimination

    Van Riemsdyk scored Boston's first goal and the Bruins never looked back, pinning a 3-1 loss on the staggering Maple Leafs to take a 3-1 lead in this first-round Stanley Cup final series. “Anytime in the playoffs it's always, obviously, these rivalry games like this are so much fun to play in and the extra juice that you get in the playoffs makes the atmosphere that much better,” said van Riemsdyk. Van Riemsdyk started the play, chipping the puck out from behind the net, where Toronto's Ryan Reaves fumbled it. Mason Lohrei pinched and pounced, shoveling the loose puck back to van Riemsdyk, who went forehand-backhand to beat Ilya Samsonov for a 1-0 lead.
