The Bruins and Maple Leafs are set for their first matinee of the series when they square off in Game 6.

NHL Public Relations announced on Friday that Game 6 between Boston and Toronto will take place at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday, April 21 at Scotiabank Arena. It will air on TV on NBC - not to be confused with NBC Sports Network. Judd Sirott and Bob Beers will have your call of the game right here on 98.5 The Sports Hub.

It's not the best news for those hoping to watch both the Bruins and Celtics on Sunday. The B's will slightly overlap with the C's when the latter take on the Indiana Pacers in Game 3 of their series on Sunday starting at 1 p.m. Barring overtime, Celtics-Pacers should wrap up during the first period of Bruins-Leafs.

As of this writing, the Bruins and Maple Leafs are tied 2-2 with a pivotal Game 5 taking place at TD Garden on Friday.
