BOSTON – When the Bruins earned a dramatic Game 7 overtime win against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night, they caused a bit of a scheduling issue at TD Garden.
After Saturday's win, the Bruins advanced to face the Florida Panthers in the second round of the playoffs.
As a result, country music star Tim McGraw was forced to change his previously scheduled TD Garden concert.
