BRUINS (10-8-1) at MAPLE LEAFS (7-10-4)

TV: TVA Sports, NESN, TSN4

Season series: The Boston Bruins defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-0 in the first of a home-and-home on Saturday. Bruins captain Zdeno Chara scored with 3:43 remaining in the third period and Brad Marchand scored an empty-net goal. Boston goalie Tuukka Rask made 22 saves for his second shutout of the season.

Maple Leafs team scope: Toronto defenseman Petter Granberg was claimed off waivers by the Nashville Predators on Sunday. He sustained a torn Achilles tendon in training camp and was placed on waivers in order to be sent to the Toronto Marlies of the American Hockey League. The Maple Leafs did not practice on Sunday after back-to-back road games, a 2-1 shootout win against the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday and the loss in Boston on Saturday. Goalie James Reimer made 35 saves against the Bruins, but had his five-game win streak end. "He came out of training camp, he had a good training camp, and [Jonathan Bernier] got to play all the time," coach Mike Babcock told the Maple Leafs website. "It would've been easy for him to feel bad for himself or be upset. He just dug in and played harder, and maybe he was upset. He's just gotten better and better and he gives us a chance each night he starts. So good for him." This is the first game of a three-game homestand.

Bruins team scope: Boston claimed forward Landon Ferraro off waivers from the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday and placed defensemen Kevan Miller on injured reserve. Miller missed the past two games with an upper-body injury. The 24-year-old Ferraro was out with a lower-body injury before he was placed on waivers by Detroit. He has one goal in 17 career games with the Red Wings and was expected to join the team in Toronto. The Bruins have allowed two goals in back-to-back wins. "Last game and [Saturday], it was much better," coach Claude Julien told the Bruins website on Saturday. "So when you talk about building on certain things, then that's probably something we can certainly build on. It's understanding that if we're stingy, we're going to get that much better of a chance to win."
