5 memorable moments from a ridiculous Leafs-Bruins Game 7
The first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs may have only provided one Game 7, but it sure was entertaining.
The Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs combined for a high-octane, drama-filled deciding contest with the Bruins ultimately coming out on top, 7-4, after erasing three separate Toronto leads.
Suffice it to say, Wednesday's game was full of memorable moments. Here are five of the best.

After Toronto jumped out to an early 1-0 lead, Boston came storming back to tie it shortly after. Not before Frederik Andersen and Tomas Plekanec pulled off this magic act, though.

As was the case all series long, David Pastrnak was making things happen, and his assist on the Bruins' first goal of the game was a good one.

The Leafs' hopes were at their highest after Kasperi Kapanen put forth this remarkable shorthanded effort, burning Brad Marchand and Tuukka Rask for a phenomenal goal.

One doesn't often link Kevan Miller to brilliant offensive plays, but this bank pass to set up Patrice Bergeron's goal at the conclusion of the first was incredible.

If you were unaware of the rookie season Jake DeBrusk had, now's a good time to remember the name, as his fifth goal of the series (and the game-winner) was a showstopper.
