The Boston Bruins are on a roll, looking to extend their five-game winning streak against the Toronto Maple Leafs, who are on a three-game tear of their own. The Bruins' latest win came on Thursday, a 3-2 overtime thriller against the Ottawa Senators, thanks to Pavel Zacha's goal at 4:54 of overtime. Boston has won six of their last seven games, recovering from a six-game losing streak earlier in the season. Toronto, however, has been on a hot streak of their own, winning five of their last six games, including a 5-3 victory over the Utah Mammoth on Wednesday. The Maple Leafs will look to continue their momentum in a back-to-back matchup, capped off by a game against the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday. Bruins coach Marco Sturm praised his team's effort, saying they have finally started to live up to his expectations. "These guys give me everything they have," he said. "We may not have played the way we wanted early on, but everyone gets it now. Everyone knows what I want out of them, and they're accepting their roles.\
