Boston Bruins Face Uphill Battle After Game 2 Loss

The Boston Bruins fell to the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0 in Game 2 of their first-round playoff series on Monday night, putting them in a difficult position as the series shifts to Toronto. Despite playing without William Nylander, the Leafs capitalized on Boston’s defensive lapses and poor puck handling, scoring timely goals to take control of the game. The Bruins struggled to generate consistent offense and failed to provide adequate support for goalie Linus Ullmark, who made several key saves but ultimately couldn’t prevent the loss.
