The Leafs would usually lay an egg when playing either of those two teams, but they play against them with a lot more fire than before! Toronto held a 4-2 advantage in games won over the Bruins.

Don't get your hopes up too much, my friend. I think, given the math, that "slim" would perhaps be best replaced with "infinitesimal."
That was a tough loss for the Bruins. A win would have clinched the division title (which they will still win), but more than that it would have been a nice momentum builder. There was an absolutely terrible penalty-shot call against the Bruins in the overtime ... seriously, I haven't seen so obviously a wrong call in the NHL all this year.
