TORONTO -- The last time Mitch Marner remembers attending a Maple Leafs game as a fan, Mats Sundin returned to Air Canada Centre as a Vancouver Canuck.Over seven years later, Sundin was back to see his No. 13 raised to the rafters, and Marner was there, too, scoring his first NHL goal to help Toronto roll over the Boston Bruins 4-1 for its first win of the season on Saturday night.Marner got his first goal in only his second game, joined on the scoresheet by fellow rookie and Toronto native Connor Brown. Their efforts came on the heels of Auston Matthews historic debut, when he became the first player in the modern NHL to score four goals in his first game.Its a lot of excitement and obviously theres going to be (a) learning curve and growing pains throughout the way, but theyve been playing great so far, teammate James van Riemsdyk said of the youth movement.Brown and Marner opened the scoring about 10 minutes apart, landing the Leafs in the record books once more. Toronto became the first team since expansion in 1967-68 to have rookies combine for the first six goals to start a season, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.Brown had the games first goal after barely two minutes, joined shortly after by the 19-year-old Marner and then van Riemsdyk a few minutes after that.The fourth overall pick of the 2015 draft, Marner took a pass from Tyler Bozak just outside the Boston blue line, gained the offensive zone with space and fired a shot far-side past goaltender Anton Khudobin.A native of nearby Thornhill, Ontario, Marner followed with an exuberant celebration.To finally be playing in front of these fans for real, its pretty crazy, Marner said. And for the first one to go in in front of them, its kind of sweet.Outside of Matthews, Marner was perhaps Torontos most dangerous player in a season-opening overtime loss to Ottawa on Wednesday. He had six shots in the 5-4 overtime defeat, following that up with a goal and four more shots in 15-plus minutes against the Bruins on Saturday.Hes shown a knack for getting behind the oppositions defense, finding a seam and some space for his first goal on Saturday.Thats just good anticipation and good smarts where he can pick his spots to use his speed to get himself in those situations, van Riemsdyk said.Marner said hed give the puck from his first goal to his parents.Anton Khudobin allowed four goals on 20 shots for Boston. David Pastrnak scored his third goal in two games this season.Overall, not a good enough effort on our part, said Bruins coach Claude Julien. And at the end of the night, you dont deserve the win.The worst team in the NHL last season, the Leafs have quickly shown themselves to be a much faster and highly skilled entity in the early days of this season, led by Marner, Matthews and 20-year-old William Nylander. Often that youth shows itself in less effective ways though, including a messy second period in which Torontos sloppiness with the puck led to chances and sustained offensive zone time for Boston.Id like us to obviously take better care of the puck and so well learn how to do that, Leafs coach Mike Babcock said afterward.Frederik Andersen gave up only one goal on 25 shots following his wobbly five-goal outing in Wednesdays season opener.Matthews was quiet on Saturday after his unparalleled showing earlier in the week. He was held point-less and finished with only two shots in nearly 17 minutes.Game notesThe Maple Leafs retired 17 sweaters in a pre-game ceremony, altering a long-standing team policy where jersey numbers were honored but not retired.UP NEXTBruins: Conclude their season-opening three-game trip Monday night at Winnipeg.Maple Leafs: Begin a three-game trip Wednesday night at Winnipeg.Rob Holding Jersey .R.

The current sign dates to 1965, although it has been refurbished several times.Thereve been fears that a new owner could have the red, white and blue sign taken down or moved. Greg Galer, executive director of the Boston Preservation Alliance, said Friday a Boston-based developer will better understand the importance of the sign to the city.Were encouraged, he said. We have a long history with Related Beal and they have been sensitive in the past to the needs of buildings with historical significance.Terms of the deal were not disclosed. The universitys statement did not specifically say what would happen to the sign, only saying that planning for its future could begin. Related Peal did not immediately return calls Friday seeking comment.Gary NNicksa, BUs senior vice president for operations, said in the announcement that he hopes community concerns about the future of the area will now subside.ddddddddddddThis is a fantastic neighborhood that has a combination of different users -- you have the university, the sports fans, the local residents, and people that are attracted to Kenmore as tourists, as employers, Related Beal President Kimberly Sherman Stamler said in a statement.The deal is expected to close in the fall. BU is selling the buildings but will lease the land to the new owners.The sale is being made to raise capital for the universitys core missions of teaching and research, BU President Robert Brown said.The Boston Landmarks Commission last month granted preliminary landmark status to the sign and is studying the issue further to determine whether it warrants permanent landmark status. Such a designation would mean the sign could not be changed or removed without the commissions approval.---This story has been corrected to show that the announced sale mentioned that planning for the future of the sign could begin.
