Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages – welcome to the 2016-2017 NHL Playoffs! The Bruins are back in for the first time since the 2013-2014 season and they have the best match-up they could have hoped for. Last night the Toronto Maple Leafs had to lose in regulation for Boston to capture the third spot in the Atlantic Division and for the first time in Toronto’s season, the loser point didn’t help them. Toronto fell 3-2 to the Blue Jackets in regulation and a small contingent of Southie become BJ fans.
Well, we’re all BJ fans.
