Yesterday, just before Game 3 between the Boston Bruins and the Toronto Maple Leafs, Bruins coach Jim Montgomery shared his thoughts on the playoff schedule.
As Game 3 unfolded at Toronto's Scotiabank Arena, Montgomery's comments added intrigue to the matchup. With an extra day off before Game 4, the Bruins faced the challenge of balancing rest and preparation amidst Montgomery's remarks.
Nevertheless, as the Bruins took to the ice for Game 3, they remained focused on the task at hand, determined to compete regardless of the playoff schedule and ended up beating the leafs 4-2 to take a 2-1 series lead.
