Game six is a huge one because it gives the Maple Leafs the opportunity to finish off this series at home.
Toronto won game five in Boston 2-1.
Boston Bruins
The Boston failed to win at home again, meaning their only chance to extend this series is to win on the road. They are 1-1 in Toronto this series, so they definitely have what it takes to win on the road.
The Bruins offense was a no-show in game five, scoring just one goal. David Krejci was the lone Boston scorer and will need help in game six if Boston wants there to be a game seven. The Bruins have four guys now who have scored two goals in the playoffs. Look for at least two of these guys to step up and produce either scoring or assists. Brad Marchhand is the guy who specifically needs to step up since he has been the point leader throughout this series.

The Bruins defense was rock solid until they were picked apart twice in the third period. After the two goals by the Maple Leafs, they stopped the bleeding, but by then it was too late. The Bruins will now need to play elite defense if they are going to slow down this Toronto offense.
Toronto Maple Leafs
Toronto did exactly what they wanted and forced a close out game to be held in their arena. This is sure to be a tough game for Toronto, but they will have their home crowd behind them all game long.
The Maple Leafs offense was held in check for the most part until they rallied to score two goals in the final period. Auston Matthews got the scoring going, but it was Kasperi Kapanen who put the game away with the second goal. Look for Matthews to once again have a productive game and if the Maple Leafs pull of the win, it will be because of him.

The Toronto defense was much better in this game only allowing one goal that came in the final minutes. By then it was too late and Toronto had already won the game. If the Maple Leafs are going to close out the series at home, they are going to need a similar type performance on the defensive end.
NHL Betting Trends:
