Paul Bissonnette drops 4-word prediction for Toronto Maple Leafs' future after dominating win over Bruins

Paul Bissonnette is a huge Toronto Maple Leafs supporter and on Tuesday, he was excited after the team beat the Boston Bruins in a 4-0 shutout.

He shared a tweet with a four-word prediction after the Leafs' win.

“Parade is back on," he tweeted.

Bissonnette was active on X throughout the game. Before the final buzzer, he kept the excitement going and asked Toronto Maple Leafs fans to enjoy the win.

“Leafs fans, you’re allowed to enjoy the good times. Don’t feel bad for enjoying tonight. We’ll beat the Bruins for the first time in 9 games and we’re still the kings of Ontario. Take a victory lap. Sweet dreams Leafs Nation,” he tweeted.

Bissonnette also praised Matthew Knies for his third-period goal:

"Matthew Knies. Net front God. The Bruins are dead."

The Toronto Maple Leafs' power play has been a major concern this season, but on Tuesday, they utilized it well. The Maple Leafs scored three power-play goals, with Morgan Rielly netting the first and also contributing two assists. William Nylander and Matthew Knies added a goal and an assist apiece.

Captain Auston Matthews was missing from the lineup due to an upper body injury.


Toronto Maple Leafs secure win after two consecutive losses

The Toronto Maple Leafs had lost two consecutive games heading into this clash, falling to the Minnesota Wild and the St. Louis Blues.

In the 2-1 overtime loss to Minnesota, William Nylander scored a power-play goal, but Auston Matthews was held scoreless. In overtime, Max Domi failed to clear the puck, which led to Matt Boldy’s breakaway goal.

Meanwhile, Toronto took an early lead against St. Louis but lost control in the second period. They allowed three quick goals, including a rebound by Colton Parayko and a deflection off Jake McCabe's skate, which gave Jordan Kyrou a goal.

Poor puck management and loose coverage let the Blues capitalize.

However, they turned things around against the Bruins with contributions from Anthony Stolarz, Morgan Rielly, Matthew Knies and Mitch Marner.
