Toronto fans have good reason to hold some fear in their hearts. The Leafs have lost six straight playoff series to the Bruins, dating back to 1959.
But this weekend, they’ll have a chance to turn that narrative around. Here’s what you need to know ahead of the playoffs:
After opening the series on Saturday, the Leafs will stay in Boston for Game 2 on Monday night.
They’ll have a two day hiatus before returning home to Scotiabank Arena for Game 3 on Wednesday, followed by another two days off the ice before Game 4 in Toronto on Saturday.
If necessary, a fifth game will be played back in Boston on April 30, followed by Game 6 in Toronto on May 2, and then back to Boston on May 4.
