The Boston Bruins tied their first-round series versus the Toronto Maple Leafs at two after a 6-4 win in Game 4 at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on Wednesday night.

David Pastrnak scored two goals in the second period and Brad Marchand had a goal and two assists as the Bruins regained home-ice advantage after losing Game 1 at home.

The Bruins had a quick start as they scored just 3:03 into the game when Charlie McAvoy scored on the power play. Just over three minutes later, Brad Marchand scored his second goal of the series to make it 2-0. But the Leafs cut Boston’s lead in half when Zach Hyman tipped Morgan Rielly’s shot in past Tuukka Rask with just 2:05 remaining in the first period.

Toronto tied it early in the second period on a goal from Auston Matthews just over a minute in. But then Pastrnak and the Bruins took over, scoring three unanswered goals. Pastrnak scored the first two in the second, one on the power play. 42-year-old Zdeno Chara scored unassisted in the third to make it 5-2 Boston.

But Toronto wasn’t done there. The Leafs came back with two goals, another one from Matthews, and one from Travis Dermott, in a span of 1:35 in the third to come within one but it was too little too late as Boston also added an empty-netter with just two seconds left to make it a 6-4 win for the Bruins.

The Leafs outshot Boston 42-31. Rask had 38 saves for the Bruins, Frederik Andersen had 25 saves for Toronto.

The series is tied 2-2. Game 5 is Friday night back at TD Garden in Boston.
