Toronto carved out a 3-1 edge in the regular season series against its bitter rivals, but it had no answer for the Bruins’ potent offense in Thursday’s 5-1 loss as a +142 road underdog in Game 1 of this opening round series. Frederik Anderson faced 40 shots on goal from a relentless Boston attack as compared to the Maple Leaf’s 27 shots at the net. Zach Hyman scored the team’s lone goal to tie the game at 1-1 at the end of the first period.

The Bruins may have stumbled into the playoffs with just one victory in their last five regular-season games, but they quickly returned to form on Thursday night. All of Boston's top scorers had an impact in that dominant win starting with Brad Marchand's power-play goal early in the first period to give his team the 1-0 lead. David Pastrnak’s late second-period goal gave Boston a 3-1 lead heading into the third. Look for the Bruins to keep the pressure on to grab the early 2-0 lead in this series.
