    Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Round 1 – Game #6 Recap

    Boston Bruins (2-3) v. Toronto Maple Leafs (3-2)

     

    Game Recap:

    The Leafs came out flying in the first ten minutes and were paid back by a one-timer goal by Morgan Rielly. The Leafs would get themselves into penalty trouble and it would put the Leafs in a hole 2-1 courtesy of goals by Brad Marchand and Torey Krug.

    The second period would deepen the hole thanks to Jake DeBrusk goal. Frederik Andersen stood his head and held the Leafs in the game, with some spectacular saves.

    The Leafs would dominate the third and get rewarded with an Auston Matthews goal, only to have an empty netter by Brad Marchand ruin the chance at a comeback.

  • Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Round 1 – Game #5 Recap

    Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Round 1 – Game #5 Recap

    Boston Bruins (2-2) v. Toronto Maple Leafs (2-2)

     

    Game Recap:

    The Leafs knew they needed to come out and be strong in the first 10 minutes of the first and that’s exactly what they did. The period would even out and remain 0-0. The Leafs penalty kill is seemingly more aggressive and clogging up the neutral zone better.

    The second period would be much of the same but the Bruins would have more chances but the Leaf played a confident defensive game and patient offensively but aggressive when they get in the zone. Good cycle game and puck movement.

    The 3rd would come the Leafs way after finally getting powerplay the Leafs seemed to pick up their play. An Auston Matthews goal on a slick feed from Jake Muzzin gave them a 1-0 lead and they just kept coming. Less than 2 minutes later the Leafs Kasperi Kapanen would blast home a beautiful pass by Andreas Johnsson. The Leafs would then have to stave off a flurry of shots from Boston in the final few of minutes. David Krejci would score with 43 seconds left but the Leafs would hold on from there and take a 3-2 series lead heading back to Toronto.

    Lineups:

    Toronto:

    Andreas Johnsson – Auston Matthews – Kasperi Kapanen

    Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Round 1 – Game #4 Recap

    Boston Bruins (2-2) v. Toronto Maple Leafs (2-2)

     

    Game Recap:

    The Leafs looked fine as the game started but soon got into penalty trouble. That’s where the Bruins took over scoring once on the powerplay and then scoring a few minutes later again to jump out to a quick 2-0. With just over 2 minutes left in the 1st period, Morgan Rielly took a shot from the point and it was tipped on the way in by Zach Hyman the shot would beat Rask and make a 2-1 game.

    The second period would see Auston Matthews score quickly to tie it up but as the period progressed the Leafs would watch David Pastrnak get himself involved in the series scoring two goals to make it 4-2 Boston.

    The 3rd would bring some dramatics Boston would score first making it 5-2 and basically put the Leafs out of reach or so they thought. The Leafs would come back with a Matthews Powerplay goal and a Dermott blast from the point to make it a 5-4 game and then put tremendous pressure on the Bruins but couldn’t cash in. Nordstrom would score on the open net to make 6-4 with seven seconds remaining.

    Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs – Round 1 – Game #3 Recap

    Boston Bruins (1-2) v. Toronto Maple Leafs (2-1)

     

    Game Recap:

    The Leafs settled back into a groove offensively and defensively, being able to manage the game appropriately. Leafs forward Auston Matthews showed he has some fire in game and came to play scoring a goal and an assist, while Andreas Johnsson cashed in with the same.

    The fourth line of the Leafs Trevor Moore – Frederik Gauthier and Tyler Ennis gave the Bruins fits all night. Trevor Moore cashed in the first goal of the game to begin the scoring in the second. Bruins forward David Krejci scored less than 60 seconds later to tie the game. Leafs would respond with Matthews and Johnsson goals in the second and Boston responded with a Charlie Coyle goal with 38 seconds to go in the period. The 3rd period would be shutdown period for the Leafs. Mitch Marner would make two huge blocks at the end of the game, to show that he’s the heart and soul of this Leafs team.

    April 14th, 2019 — News and Notes

    Today is Sunday, April 14th, 2019, and these are your news and noted from yesterday.

     

    All of the game recaps are written by TXHT’s esteemed staff.

     

    There were four contests in action yesterday.

     

     

    WASHINGTON 4, Carolina 3 (OT) (Washington leads the series 2-0)

     

    The Washington Capitals would defeat the Carolina Hurricanes in overtime, 4-3, thanks to the game-winner from Capitals defenceman Brooks Orpik.

     

    The Capitals will look to a commanding 3-0 lead tomorrow night when Game 3 takes place in Raleigh.

     

    Michael Lindenbaum has your full recap of the contest between the Hurricanes and the Capitals at the following page.

     

    NASHVILLE 2, Dallas 1 (OT) (Series is tied 1-1)

     

    The Nashville Predators would defeat the Dallas Stars with the 2-1 win in overtime.  Craig Smith would net the game winner and Predators G Pekka Rinne would have 21 saves in the contest.

     

    Nashville will look to take the 2-1 series lead when Game 3 takes place tomorrow night in Dallas.

     

    Dickson Kendrick has your full recap of the contest between the Stars and the Predators at the following page.

     

     

    BOSTON 4, Toronto 1 (Series is tied 1-1)

     

    This would be a very physical contest between the Boston Bruins and the Toronto Maple Leafs with the Bruins getting the 4-1 win, and tying the series 1-1.

     

    This game would not come without controversy as Toronto’s Nazem Kadri delivered a cross-check to the head of Boston’s Jake DeBrusk, which not only ejected him from the game but also earned him an in-person from the NHL’s Department of Player Safety.

     

    TXHT should have more on this as soon as there is a decision reached from the NHL’s Department of Player Safety.

     

    With the series now tied 1-1, both teams will try to take the series lead when Game 3 of the series takes place tomorrow night.

     

    Steve Gardiner has your full recap of the contest between the Maple Leafs and the Bruins at the following page.

     

     

     

    Colorado 3, CALGARY 2 (OT) (Series is tied 1-1)

     

    The Colorado Avalanche would defeat the Calgary Flames with the 3-2 win in overtime.

     

    Colorado’s Nathan MacKinnon would net the game winner to tie this series at 1.

     

    Both teams will look to take the 2-1 series lead with Game 3 shifting to Colorado.  Game 3 takes place tomorrow night.

  • Toronto Maple Leafs vs Boston Bruins – Round 1 – Game #2 Recap

    Toronto Maple Leafs vs Boston Bruins – Round 1 – Game #2 Recap

    Toronto Maple Leafs (1-1) v. Boston Bruins (1-1)

     

    Game Recap:

    Boston came out flying as they were expected too in game #2. Boston began by not only dominating in the shot column but by putting some serious physical pressure on the Leafs. Soon the physicality turned into some questionable hits and ruckus on both sides and the game began to swing to the old games between the Bruins and Leafs were it was an all-out brawl. Jake Debrusk of the Boston Bruins made a couple questionable plays including what looked to be an intentional knee on knee with Leafs forward Nazem Kadri and also bloodied Leafs Travis Dermott earlier in the game with an Elbow to the nose both went uncalled and seemed to fuel the rivalry. Leafs Defensemen Jake Muzzin was bloodied on a charging call by Boston Forward David Pastrnak, and later on, Muzzin cleanly-hit defensemen Torey Krug who unfortunately had his head down on the play and looked bad, he never returned to the game and has a history of concussion issues.  Bruins defencemen also left the game with an injury and never returned, unknown reasoning a far as we know. Charlie Coyle opened the scoring to get the crowd into the game and Marchand made it 2-0 just before the end of the 1st.  William Nylander made a massive gaff, just as the Leafs look to be getting their legs a bit, which led to the Danton Heinen goal. Kadri gave the Leafs some hope in the 3rd scoring to make it 3-1 but then later Kadri himself would seal the win for the Bruins when after Patrick Marleau was cleanly checked into the stansion by Jake DeBrusk. Kadri would take matters into his own hands and cross-check Debrusk to the head, resulting in a 5-minute powerplay to end the game and the big possibility of an impending suspension for Nazem Kadri.
