The Boston Bruins didn’t have first-line center Patrice Bergeron in Thursday night’s Game 4 against the Toronto Maple Leafs, but his linemates picked up the slack.
The B’s opened the scoring in the first period with their top line on the ice, and this line put Boston up again in the second period when Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak perfectly executed a 2-on-1 rush.
Pastrnak poked the puck up ice, won the race to it and fed a great pass to Marchand, who hit the open net to give the Bruins a 2-1 lead.
