During a TV timeout on Wednesday, as the Bruins and Maple Leafs were heading to the benches, Max Domi *accidentally on purpose* ran into Jeremy Swayman, sending the young goaltender down to the ice, which really got Bruins winger Pat Maroon riled up.
Bruins coach Jim Montgomery attributed the altercation to Swayman's excellent play getting into the heads of Domi and the Maple Leafs - a sentiment that Sheldon Keefe had shut down instantly and dismissed as nonsense on Thursday.

Swayman himself didn't seem too bothered by the hit after picking up the 4-2 win. His take on the incident was actually rather surprising.
Swayman may be young, but he knows what the playoffs are all about and after picking up a huge win and a 2-1 series lead, who can blame him for keeping a level head about the whole thing?
