Asked about the series, Head Coach Mike Babcock quickly pointed out, “I think they’ve got more points than us, so we’re the underdog.” He went on, “In saying all of that, they believe they’re going to win and we believe we’re going to win. That doesn’t mean we think it’s going to be easy. We don’t think that at all. But we think we’ve got enough in the room that we’re going to find a way.”
Comparing the teams’ numbers, they are relatively even. The Leafs special teams add up to 106.4 percent, while the Bruins are at a tidy 107.
