The Maple Leafs are living to fight another day after topping the Bruins 2-1 in overtime of Game Five at TD Garden.

The Leafs got on the board first after Jake McCabe found the back of the net in the opening period.

The Black and Gold responded with Trent Frederic scoring his third goal of the series.

After a scoreless second and third period, Matthew Knies scored the game-winner in overtime.

Joseph Woll stopped 27 of the 28 shots he faced to lead Toronto to the victory.

Boston is now leading the best of seven first round series 3-2 and will visit Scotiabank Arena for Game Six Thursday night.
