Bruins eliminate Leafs with Game 7 win for second year in a row:
The Bruins have now defeated the Leafs in Game 7 in the opening round of the playoffs three of the last seven seasons, with each clincher coming at TD Garden.
The Bruins will now take on the Columbus Blue Jackets after the conference's eighth seed swept the Presidents' Trophy-winning Tampa Bay Lightning in the first round. The series was a back-and-forth slugfest featuring razor-thin margins. Neither team managed to put together consecutive victories until the Bruins won 4-2 in Game 6 on Sunday to stave off elimination in Toronto before taking Tuesday's winner-take-all showdown.
The Bruins came with a push to start the third period, and Kuraly made Toronto pay when stepped aroundin the neutral zone and beat Andersen with his first of the playoffs on a shot over his left shoulder that the Leafs goalie will want back at 2:40.
