TORONTO -- Chuck Kobasew scored with 3:31 left in the third period, lifting the Boston Bruins to a 4-2 comeback win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night.
Kobasew stepped into the slot and ripped a wrist shot past Vesa Toskala on the stick side, giving Boston a 3-2 lead and stunning the home crowd as the Leafs blew a 2-0 lead. Kobasew capped the win with an empty-net goal 26.7 seconds from the end.
P.J. Axelsson and Phil Kessel also scored for the Bruins, who beat the Leafs for the second time in less than a week after a 5-2 win at home last Thursday.
Mats Sundin and Bryan McCabe scored for Toronto, which outshot Boston 32-25.
Boston's 20-year-old goalie Tuukka Rask earned his first NHL win in his first start.
