Auston Matthews put the team on his back as the Leafs battled back from a 2-1 deficit in the third period to win 3-2 and tie the series 1-1.
Game 2 was an even more physical affair than Game 1, but the Leafs did well to match the nastiness the Bruins brought. And their penalty kill held up better than in Game 1, showing that aforementioned patience. Killing off a third-period Tyler Bertuzzi slashing penalty ultimately swung the momentum back in their favour.
Despite being without William Nylander for the second game in a row, the Leafs got necessary production with goals from Max Domi, John Tavares and Auston Matthews. The series now heads back to Toronto for Game 3 on Wednesday night.
