Watch Toronto Maple Leafs Vs. Boston Bruins Live Stream: Game 7 NHL Playoffs First Round, Start Time, Preview


For the second time in two years, and the fifth time in the history of these two “original six” National Hockey League franchises, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Boston Bruins will face off in a first-round NHL Playoff Game 7, as CBC Sports reported. But Toronto is hoping that this edition of their Game 7 showdown turns out differently than three of the last four, because the Leafs have not defeated the Bruins in a Game 7 since April 7, 1959. In fact, almost exactly one year ago, the two teams met in Game 7 when Boston scored four goals in the third period to eliminate Toronto 7-4. Toronto will try one more time in Tuesday’s game which will live stream from Boston.

Face-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time at the 17,500-seat TD Garden, in Boston, Massachusetts, on Tuesday, April 23. That start time will be 4 p.m. Pacific, 6 p.m. Central.

Though Boston has the home ice advantage, there is some question as to how much of an advantage that really is, with each team taking two of its three wins on the other team’s ice, as Global News reported. But the teams have also alternated wins in the series so far, with the Leafs taking Game 1, 2, and 5 — meaning that if the pattern holds, Game 7 should go Toronto’s way.

Brad Marchand scored two goals in Game Six to lead the Boston Bruins into Game Seven against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
