Boston is 18-6-2 on the road, ranked fifth in the NHL in scoring, tops in goals allowed and penalty killing. The Bruins are on a 22-6 run, including 17-4 on the road. They catch a break against rival Toronto, as the Maple Leafs are without superstar Auston Matthews, who suffered a shoulder injury in Thursday's win over the New York Islanders. Matthews leads the Maple Leafs in goals and points and will be out for a while. The Maple Leafs are 15-37 against a team with a winning percentage above .600 and Boston just beat them, 4-1, three weeks ago. Back Boston.
