Tyler Bertuzzi is stirring the pot.
Tyler Bertuzzi is stirring the pot.
The Boston Bruins have squandered another big opportunity. Heading into Game 6, the Bruins had the chance to end their series against the Toronto Maple Leafs with a win. Instead, they put together another pedestrian effort and lost to the Maple Leafs by a 2-1 final score. Now, the Bruins will try to avoid another 3-1 series lead collapse and close out the Leafs in Game 7.
The Maple Leafs, who have played each of the last two games without Auston Matthews, should feel very confident right now. They have all the momentum heading into Game 7, having won back-to-back elimination games. Now, they will try to complete their comeback and knock out the B's.
Following Game 6, Maple Leafs forward Tyler Bertuzzi was asked if he's been frustrating Bruins captain Brad Marchand over the last few games. Bertuzzi answered by addressing the Bruins as a unit.
"Maybe a little bit. Obviously, I think everyone's frustrated over there."
The Bruins certainly should be frustrated right now. They have lost control of the series and have scored just goals over their last two games. However, Bertuzzi letting them know that certainly adds salt to the wound.
The Bruins will now look to bounce back from back-to-back underwhelming showings and end Bertuzzi and the Leafs' season in Game 7.
