Nice win by the Leafs, well deserved. I don't mind them winning as much as I thought I'd get upset.

Didn't think the Leafs could play like that, especially against the Bruins.

Quite possibly the best playoff goal I have ever seen. Definitely in the top ten. Beauty.
Slightly off topic: awesome pic. Wonder if the lady in suit at bottom right is watching the game, and not sure what the beard dude is doing turning away
Thanks for posting that Dion. I've been following his FB page a lot and he is absolutely an amazing human being. A mere 2 hours after surgery he was laughing and the same day he got a present from Macy's for a 18 year old Boston Marathon bomb survivor who was in the same hospital as him.

As he waved the flag and the Foo Fighters song “All My Life” played, the giant Bruins banner that is passed around the Garden before each playoff game began its circle of the seats.
Bauman has become emblematic of those who survived the blasts with devastating injuries. His ashen face was captured alongside that of Carlos Arredondo in a widely published Associated Press photo that, in uncropped form, shows Bauman’s leg completely destroyed below the knee.
The Chelmsford resident attended the Marathon to cheer on his girlfriend, who was running. He has worked for about 3½ years at the Nashua Costco wholesale club, where co-workers have rallied to provide financial support and the company has pledged to match their donations.
Supporters also plan to hold a fund-raiser for Bauman at The Village Smokehouse in Lowell on Sunday night
That was a fun game to watch. I haven't watched many games so far this playoff season from start to finish so maybe not the most exciting but it was a good battle. I thought at times the bruins were pressing so hard there was no way the Leafs had a chance. A few lucky breaks and great skill.
Any chance the Bruins go far this season with Rask between the pipes? I'm not sure, I don't watch enough to know much about him.

This was definitely a fun game to watch. While not quite as intense as the Kings v. Blues series I thought this was the most fun game I've seen in the playoffs so far. I had virtually no interest in this series at all until watching this game, but I'll be watching the rest now for the fun of these two teams (especially the Leafs) and the story line and rivalry.

This incident happened after game 2. Not a proud moment as a Bruins fan, this is disgraceful. Alcohol + hot headed temper after your team loses = Innocent fan knocked out.
Its all fun to be rival fans but this is way too far.

“After the game I was blind-sided with a sucker punch while I had my mask on,” Kyle, who was also celebrating his birthday, explained. “Honestly, I do not remember what happened.”
Obviously Kyle does not remember being knocked out, so he needed his friends to fill him in. Bryan helps there. “Our buddy Patrick was the only one to see what actually happened and was with him the entire time afterwards. You can see him in the video. We came down the same stairs about two minutes later and that's when we realized what had happened. “
Comments on the YouTube video and on other forums suggest that maybe Kyle and his friends were antagonizing Bruins fans after the game, and perhaps “had it coming.” Kyle says that’s not true. “There was no chirping going on when it happened. Just a pissed off fan, I guess.”
