After another win over the Toronto Maple Leafs and officially eliminating the Leafs from the playoffs, the Bruins now sit in the seventh in the Coference with five games left to play.

In the absents of Marc Savard (broken bone in back) and Chuck Kobasew(broken leg), the B’s have managed to score four or more goals in Bruins wins. David Krejci has taken the role of Savard on the powerplay, and has looked great doing it. You have to apprieciate the play of Bruin’s rookie center. He has tallied four points in his last two game and was the best player on the ice in last night’s game.

Krejci made a perfect pass to set up Marco Sturm for the first goal of the game. Toronto tied it up on a Jiri Tlusty goal in the second. Then three third period goals by the Bruin’s Phil Kessel, Glen Murray, and Peter Schaefer sealed the fate of the game and ultimately, Toronto’s season. Tim Thomas made 30 stops in the win.

Weird stat of the night: The teams played 11:53 without a stoppage in the first period.

The Maple Leafs became the fourth team in the Eastern Conference eliminated from the playoffs. The others: New York Islanders, Atlanta Thrashers and Tampa Bay Lightning.

Congratulations to Bruins rookie winger, Milan Lucic who received the Bruins’ annual 7th Player award before the game.
