3 takeaways from the Bruins’ 2-1 shootout loss to the Blues

The Bruins finished up their five-game western road swing Saturday with a meeting against the surging St. Louis Blues. They stumbled out of the gate and looked like a fatigued team in the final game of a road trip.

The Blues controlled the majority of play in the opening frame, and they jumped out to an early 1-0 lead courtesy of Alexander Steen’s seventh goal of the season. But the Bruins once again showed grit and resiliency and bounced back to tie things up on Chris Wagner’s second-period tally.

Yet, it wouldn’t be a true Bruins game this season without overtime, and, for that matter, a shootout.
