NEW YORK — Just like their loss to Detroit the day before, the Boston Bruins came out flat, surrendering two early goals to the Rangers and falling behind 2-0. It wasn’t until 12:37 of the opening stanza that Boston recorded its first shot on goal.
After they registered their first shot, the Bruins caught fire briefly. Boston dominated the next few minutes and scored two goals in 24 seconds to even the contest.
Standing net front, Charlie Coyle potted stout feed from Trent Frederic to cut the deficit in half. The fourth line followed up the Coyle line’s productive shift, with Morgan Geekie blasting home the temporary equalizer.
