Last time the Bruins played the Maple Leafs they kick the shit out of them to the tune of a 7-2. During the game Kessel was booed by Bruins fans every time he touched the puck (yea, I don't really get that either). Anyways, Kessel has been one of the leaders on the Leafs team (10 goals and six assists in 17 games) that has done a decent job rebound from a terrible 0-7-1 start.
Boston has been on fire of late going 7-2-1 over their last ten games. The bad news is that the Leafs have the exact same record during that stretch. I expect Toronto to play a lot better then the last time these two teams faced, but Boston is just the better overall team, so they should win.
Thomas will likely be back in net tonight, but Boston could be playing without Wideman and Morris tonight, which is would be a big blow to Boston's defense.
Game starts at 7pm on NESN.
***UPDATE***
Wideman/Morris skated this morning. Wideman is expected to play, but there is still no word on the availability of Morris.
