3 takeaways from the Bruins’ thrilling overtime win over the Oilers

COMMENTARY

The Boston Bruins kicked off their three-game Western Canadian swing in chilly Edmonton on Wednesday. In the end, they iced two pivotal points in dramatic fashion.

In a physical game full of penalties and quality scoring chances, David Pastrnak ended things quickly during the 3-on-3 overtime session. The Dynamic Czech playmaker, who took a tripping penalty with 2:30 left in regulation, was off to the races after receiving a feed from fellow countryman David Krejci en route to his 43rd goal of the season.

It wasn’t pretty at times against an injury-plagued Oilers bunch.
