Pat Maroon is a bad bad man #Bruins #Leafs
So far, the Bruins depth has been the difference in the game with their fourth line scoring the series-opening goal with the Leafs' fourth line also on the ice. Maroon is a big part of that Bruins depth, proving himself to be useful both with and without the puck.
