James van Riemsdyk quieted the Boston crowd with 3:07 remaining, when the big man managed to pull off a pirouette while parked in front of the goal, spinning before putting the puck in off goalie Tuukka Rask for an insurance goal and a 4-2 lead.
The Leafs' James Reimer stopped 39 shots.

Game on for Crosby

It's game on for Sidney Crosby.

The Penguins' star says he will play Friday night in Game 2 of the playoff series with the New York Islanders after missing more than a month with a broken jaw.

Crosby skated with usual linemates Pascal Dupuis and Chris Kuntiz on Friday morning and expects to be in the lineup as Pittsburgh tries to go up 2-0 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarter-final.

Crosby underwent a series of dental procedures after taking a shot to the face against New York on March 30. He returned to practice nearly two weeks ago and will wear a protective cage as an additional safety measure.

While Crosby will return, Pittsburgh forward James Neal is likely out after leaving Pittsburgh's 5-0 romp in Game 1 with an undisclosed injury.

The Penguins went 8-4 while playing without Crosby for the final quarter of the season and beat the Islanders in four of their five meetings this year.
