When the 2012-13 regular season ended and the final standings paired the Boston Bruins against the Toronto Maple Leafs for a first-round Stanley Cup Playoff series, the matchup made an impact on the Seguin family.
"I don't know if they were that happy," Bruins forward Tyler Seguin said of his family's reaction. "My sisters weren't the happiest. They've got to go to school and deal with it all, unlike me. But I don't think they care too much. They're excited that we're in the playoffs, first of all, and they're excited that we're playing them."
Seguin, from Brampton, Ontario, grew up rooting for the Maple Leafs. Now he'll try to make Toronto's first appearance in the playoffs since 2004 a short one. Game 1 of the Bruins-Maple Leafs series is Wednesday at TD Garden (7 p.m. ET, CBC, RDS, CNBC).

That's pretty awesome. Wonder if it gives him any motivation playing the Leafs.
