BOSTON — The Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Bruins 2-1 in overtime to keep their season alive for at least one more game.
The Leafs came out full throttle from the first shift of Game 5 and outplayed the Bruins in every aspect of their game. Boston head coach Jim Montgomery said that “desperation” was the difference in the game.
“We weren’t good enough. Just simple as that,” Montgomery told reporters after the game.
