The Bruins take this one 4-1 to win their sixth-straight game vs. the Leafs 🐻 https://t.co/S43fgacAYT
Big time response by the Bruins after that brutal loss on the Island over the weekend. Strong, crisp all-around performance against Toronto in a 4-1 win with a great third period response after Tavares scored one for the Leafs. Best game they've played since the All Star break
To this point, that was the biggest win of the 2023-24 regular season for the #NHLBruins! @BOSHockeyNow
Bruins beat Leafs 4-1 in Toronto. Now have to rip home. They’ve got the Oilers tomorrow night back to back.
SUCCESS IN THE SIX. https://t.co/zj5yFWiwm4

Not an easy night for the #NHLBruins - but a perfect night for Morgan Geekie! #HatTrick #Win https://t.co/7OzVoCfcjj
Woll, #LeafsForever defeat #Yotes at home in regulation for first time since day Knies was born “That’s quite a long time. I feel pretty old, that’s pretty incredible. That’s a huge coincidence.” My @NHLdotcom story: #NHL https://t.co/BFZQjbXFns
“It’s something you don’t ever really think about going into a game, but it’s fun…” Morgan Geekie reacts to his first career hat trick and the overall developments from the B’s 5-4 win over Vegas. https://t.co/SRlnR4HS7H

Maple Leafs bounce back with 4-2 win over Coyotes https://t.co/ptc1YfHaZW https://t.co/5G0l0J6ze6
Marner on his shifts on defence: "I’m just going where I’m getting asked. It’s a bit of a learning curve back there for me, but it’s pretty easy with Tommy (Brodie). He has great gap, great stick. Just trying to find plays and try not to make mistakes." #Leafs
The Golden Knights erased a three-goal deficit to tie the game in Boston, but the Bruins converted on a late power play to earn a victory. #VegasBorn https://t.co/xTdTCnwZyd
In his first start in 85 days, Joseph Woll and the Leafs get the W at home. 🍁 https://t.co/g0nV6PlHW9 https://t.co/8N3PXH7zpG
Final, 5-4 Boston. Vegas comes up short after digging themselves out of a 3-0 hole after the first period. Starts have to improve, but I loved the pushback from the Golden Knights. I feel for Sheldon Rempal, who’s penalty proved costly tonight.
Leafs win 4-2 and pick up their first regulation win at home against the Coyotes since 2002 on the day Matthew Knies was born.

More shifts on D for Marner. #Leafs
Bertuzzi (who else?) and it's 2-0 #Leafs at 1:05 of the second. Deflection of Lagesson shot.
Giordano not back for the start of the second period. #Leafs
Mark Giordano does not return for the second period. Left at 10:48 of the first period after hitting his head hard on the boards and requiring assistance from a trainer and Morgan Rielly to leave the ice. @NHLdotcom #LeafsForever
Two goals in the first period for Morgan Geekie! 🔥🤓 https://t.co/coBLpw9A53
End of the first, 3-0 Boston. The Bruins carried the play in the first period. The Golden Knights never really got to their game, and then the dam burst. Boston scores three times in 2:20 to take a commanding three-goal lead.
End of 1: Bruins 3, Golden Knights 0 At least it’s not 4-0? Shots are 16-7 Boston.
1-0 #Leafs after one. Shots on goal 9-9. A good first period in his return for Joseph Woll.
Morgan Geekie. Again. 3-0 Boston. Transition chance, and Pastrnak threads the need to Geekie. No chance for Hill there. Vegas unraveling.

Marner to Knies. He used to make that kind of play with the London Knights. 1-0 #Leafs
Giordano slow to get up after crashing into corner boards. He's being helped off the ice and goes directly to the dressing room. #Leafs
The last time the #LeafsForever defeated the #Yotes in regulation at home was on October 17, 2002. Things that happened that day: Matthew Knies was born I was a month into Grade 11 @RoyalSGC
I find this remarkable: The last time the Maple Leafs beat the Coyotes in regulation in Toronto was Oct. 17, 2002. That's the day Matthew Knies was born
As Joseph Woll returns to action, some thoughts on Maple Leafs carrying three goalies… https://t.co/EsDHutn88F
The last time the Leafs beat Arizona in Toronto was October 17th, 2002. That was also the day Matthew Knies was born.
The Coyotes are 10-0-2 in the past 12 meetings with the #Leafs at Scotiabank Arena, not having lost to Toronto in regulation since Oct. 17, 2002. That night, Leafs won 5-3 on the strength of two goals by Shayne Corson and three assists from Alex Mogilny. It's been a minute.
"He's preparing to play..." #Leafs take a cautious approach as they prepare for Joseph Woll's return and why they will be carrying 3 goalies on their active roster. ⤵️ https://t.co/HpT4KLTgcl https://t.co/HpT4KLTgcl
GAME DAY - Joseph Woll is set to make his first start since Dec. 7 for the Maple Leafs tonight. Head coach Sheldon Keefe added the team plans to carry three goaltenders moving forward with Woll, Ilya Samsonov and Martin Jones. More from @markhmasters: https://t.co/NufjXFLAgJ https://t.co/F0L2Rtrbzf
