In case you missed it last night, the Boston Bruins stopped their little mini slide by defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs by a score of 5-2. The Bruins had lost three games in a row prior to yesterday evening, so to say that the team was looking to get off the schneid is an understatement.
If you're a Leafs fan, it was a disappointing showing from a team that has showed a renewed sense of perseverance this season. Sure, they were without the services of superstar forward Auston Matthews but they're also a team with decent offensive depth. At a certain point, you have to have depth players step up to contribute in different ways. Veteran Leafs forward Wayne Simmonds gets it and tried to give his team a spark in a very one-sided scrap with Bruins forward AJ Greer. The best part? We get an up close and personal look at it all thanks to a killer camera angle.
