What's at stake for the Boston Bruins in Game 6?

Locked On Bruins - Daily Podcast On The Boston Bruins

The Boston Bruins simply can't afford to blow another 3-1 series lead.

Expectations weren't sky high coming into this season, but the Bruins have exceeded them all along the way, building up a 3-1 series lead over a Toronto Maple Leafs club with Stanley Cup aspirations. But even in this transition season, the Bruins can't allow what happened last year in their series with the Florida Panthers to happen again.

No, the franchise won't crumble, but it'll raise all sorts of unnecessary noise and questions about the coach and the core, and could lead to over reactionary offseason decisions.

Finish the Maple Leafs by reverting back to what worked in Games 3 and 4 without worrying about whether Auston Matthews is playing or if Joseph Woll is in net.. Boston's best players simply need to be better than they were in Game 5 - is it finally time for David Pastrnak's big performance?
