Can the Leafs prolong the series in NHL 24?
With the Toronto Maple Leafs on the brink of elimination we simulated Game 6 in NHL 24 to see if they could take the Boston Bruins to a Game 7.
Our series simulation predicted a 4-1 Leafs series win. Our Game 5 simulation went the way of Boston.
Our Game 6 simulation saw Boston open the scoring before Toronto scored six unanswered goals to win the game 6-1, pushing the series to a seventh game.
We inserted Connor Dewar for Auston Matthews for Toronto. Justin Brazeau draws in for Danton Heinen and Kevin Shattenkirk takes Matt Grzelcyk's spot for Boston. Joseph Woll and Jeremy Swayman started in net.
After struggling for offense throughout the series Toronto exploded for six goals without their top goal scorer Auston Matthews.

It was a rare rough game for Jeremy Swayman against Toronto, who had only allowed six total goals in this series before this game.
Calle Jarnkrok lead the Leafs with three points, while Morgan Rielly and Nick Robertson each had two.
Leafs fans would certainly take this result in Game 6.
