BOSTON — The Boston Bruins opened the third period of their Game 7 matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday trailing 4-3, but that changed in a hurry.
Zach Hyman and David Krejci both were sent to the penalty box a little over a minute into the third period at TD Garden, setting up a four-on-four situation.
Patrice Bergeron won the faceoff in the B’s offensive zone and the puck made its way to Torey Krug, who smoked a rocket past Leafs goalie Frederik Andersen to tie the game at four.
