Toronto will no doubt be disappointed, however, Boston did finish well ahead of them in the regular-season standings.<\/p>\n<h2>Game Scores:<\/h2>\n<p><strong>11th April\u00a0 Toronto Maple Leafs 4\u20131 Boston Bruins <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>13th April\u00a0 Toronto Maple Leafs 1\u20134 Boston Bruins <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>15th April\u00a0 Boston Bruins 2\u20133 Toronto Maple Leafs <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>17th April Boston Bruins 6\u20134 Toronto Maple Leafs <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>19th April Toronto Maple Leafs 2\u20131 Boston Bruins <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>21st April Boston Bruins 4\u20132 Toronto Maple Leafs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>23rd April Toronto Maple Leafs 1\u20135 Boston Bruins<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Boston will now face the surprise team of the First Round The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiveminutesspare.com\/nhl\/2019\/04\/17\/columbus-sweep-tampa-in-eastern-conference-opening-round\/\">Columbus Blue Jackets<\/a> &#8211; who swept the President&#8217;s Trophy winners Tampa Bay in their first series.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/\">NHL Home<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boston End Toronto&#8217;s Stanley Cup Dreams Early Again In what was a back and forth as well as thoroughly entertaining series, Boston got the better of the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-3 in this Eastern Conference First Round.
