The Boston Bruins appeared well on their way to starting 2-0 on the season during Saturday’s home opener against the lowly Coyotes. But a pair of sloppy turnovers eradicated their two-goal cushion and turned what looked like an easy two points into a dogfight against the lowly Coyotes.
The Bruins didn’t deviate from their approach after Josh Brown and Shayne Gostisbehere (shorthanded breakaway) capitalized on the third-period turnovers. They received contributions from all four lines throughout the night. And like Wednesday’s season-opener in Washington — albeit with a one-goal lead intact — the Bruins finished the job in the final frame.
