Doesn't matter really. We can beat both.
The bigger factor is the officiating. Will the bruins be allowed to hit from behind, interfere, hold/hook/slash or will they be penalized?
Never really got these wish type threads, they'll play who they're scheduled to play no matter the fans wishes.

Leafs are 3-1 vs Boston this year.
Doubt they want to play us first.
The current Bruins team is much better than the Bruins team we beat back to back early in the season. Those numbers don't count for much for me.
Fans taking teams lightly will have no affect on the outcome.Many Leafs fans took Carolina lightly years ago.
We can take no one lightly. We can beat both, but if we are not on our game we will be crushed.
No one will be happy with a 2nd round exit.

How many Devil's games have you watched this year? Nico is one of my favorite players, so I watch them on a semi-regular basis. They're not a team I'd be afraid of...in fact they'd be one of the teams I'd prefer to play in the East.

Neither Tampa or Boston want to play us first if it’s possible not to...NJ or Philly are a much easier opponent.
IIRC, there are some models out there that favour the Leafs against Tampa despite the fact that they have home ice advantage.

Boston's defense is susceptible to speed. The Devil's have speed for days. They may in fact be quicker than we are.
They are also playing with a free deck of cards with zero expectations, and if they get to raske early (which is easy to do) and ride a hot goalie...it's bye bye boston.
It certainly does, just like if I dont change my underwear for the duration of the playoff season..it matters
