Toronto star forward Auston Matthews, who missed Games 5 and 6 after exiting Game 4 with an illness before the third period, took the ice with the Maple Leafs on Saturday and played Game 7 vs. the Boston Bruins.
A source told ESPN's Emily Kaplan before the game that by no means is Matthews 100%, but that he would play.
Goaltender Joseph Woll, however, who has led a Toronto rally with two wins in the past two games, did not play against the Bruins. Ilya Samsonov, who began the series as Toronto's starter, returned to the crease at TD Garden. Veteran Martin Jones was Toronto's backup netminder.
