The Toronto Maple Leafs squared off against the Boston Bruins, clinching a hard-fought 3-2 victory to tie the series at one game each at TD Garden on Monday night.
Unfortunately, the Leafs faced a setback with forward William Nylander missing from the lineup in the first two games, leaving a significant gap in their offense. However, there's hope on the horizon.
Head coach Sheldon Keefe hinted at the possibility of Nylander returning for tonight's crucial Game 3 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto.

Auston Matthews is good to go tonight, per Keefe. Yet, recent reports suggest that Nylander is more likely to sit out, adding to the Leafs' challenges.
