[BRUINS]
This is the finale of a four-game road trip for Boston, which is 1-1-1 to this point. The Bruins played another team desperate for points in Nashville on Thursday, and it was a back-and-forth game as they led the Predators 1-0, trailed 2-1 and led again 3-2 before David Legwand scored midway through the third to force overtime. That's where a Shea Weber power-play goal doomed the Bruins to a 4-3 defeat. They've lost five of their last six.
"We have to get sharper in our decision making because right now it is becoming too costly for us," coach Claude Julien said.

[MAPLE LEAFS]
The margin for error got even slimmer for Toronto following Thursday's 4-0 loss in Florida. This is a brief stop home in the midst of a stretch where the Maple Leafs play five of six away from the Air Canada Centre. They embark on a three-game road trip starting Tuesday in Minnesota. Rookie goalie James Reimer figures to get plenty of work after veteran Jean-Sebastien Giguere got his first start since Feb. 16 and stopped 22 shots against the Panthers.
"We didn't have our legs," forward Clarke MacArthur said. "We're a team that can skate well. We didn't do that tonight."
