Toronto dominated the first period and the early going in the second.
The Maple Leafs outshot the Bruins 12-1 in the opening period. Boston did not get its first shot of the second period and second of the game until more than seven-and-a-half minutes into the middle period.
It was the Bruins' fewest shots in the first period of a playoff game since shots on goal became an official stat in 1959-60.
