Boston looks to finish off the Maple Leafs after Brad Marchand scored the go-ahead goal on Thursday and Tuukka Rask made 31 saves to give the Bruins a 3-1 series lead. Boston has won four of the last six meetings and Toronto has lost five its last eight games and the home team has won five of the last six meetings. Toronto has lost eight of its last 11 road games while the Bruins have won 21 of their last 26 home contests. Also, Boston is 36-15 its last 51 games against Eastern Conference teams and 24-8 playing with one day of rest. Rask is 34-14-5 with a 2.36 goals-against average and .917 save percentage along with plenty of playoff experience. Toronto goalie Frederik Andersen has a 2.81 GAA and .918 save percentage this season. Look for a similar performance as we had in Game 4 and take the Bruins and the UNDER.
