The Toronto Maple Leafs secured a 2-1 victory over the Boston Bruins in Toronto on Thursday. This marks the second consecutive season where the Bruins have squandered a 3-1 series lead, mirroring their fate against the Florida Panthers last year.
Despite David Pastrnak’s notable performance in a previous Game 6 against the Panthers, where he scored two goals, he struggled to find the net this season, despite making four shots.
Coach Montgomery emphasized the need for top players like Brad Marchand and Pastrnak to excel during critical moments.
Pastrnak’s current playoff performance, with only two goals and two assists in six games, falls short of expectations, especially considering his impressive regular-season stats.
The series will culminate in a decisive Game 7 at TD Garden on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET, broadcasted on multiple networks.
