Dennis Hildeby shows he can be reliable for Leafs in relief vs. Bruins

During a disappointing Saturday night 5-3 loss against their divisional rivals, the Boston Bruins, a silver lining of hope emerged in the form of Leafs' backup goaltender, Dennis Hildeby. On Saturday night at Scotiabank Arena, Hildeby started the game as the Leafs' backup, but after Boston exploded for two quick second-period goals to take a 4-2 lead, this 24-year-old at 4:41 of the second period was pressed into action and made a statement by stopping 19 of 20 shots in an eventual 5-3 Bruins win.
