Marchand breaks team playoff goals mark, Bruins beat Maple Leafs 3
TORONTO (AP) — Brad Marchand broke the Boston playoff goals record with his 56th and the Bruins beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-1 in Game 4 on Saturday night to move within a victory of advancing to the second round.
Marchand also had an assist, James van Riemsdyk and David Pastrnak scored and Jeremy Swayman made 24 saves. Boston can wrap up the series Tuesday night at home.
“Guys were committed,” Marchand said about the Bruins’ defensive structure. “We played tight. Guys did a great job getting back and getting sticks in lanes and making it tough on them.”
Mitch Marner scored for Toronto, while Auston Matthews, the NHL goals leader in the regular season with 69, sat out the third period because of an illness that forced him to miss practice Friday.
“He’s been giving us everything,” Toronto coach Sheldon Keefe said. “Ultimately, the doctors pulled him.”
