At times, Jeremy Lauzon provided a steady hand on Boston’s back-end during his first few seasons. In other moments, he succumbed to pressure with costly turnovers and unlucky breaks.
Lauzon’s outing in Game 2 against the New York Islanders provided a perfect example of his ups and downs.
The V-al’Dor, Quebec-born blue-liner, began his night with an untimely bounce off his skates on Josh Bailey’s feed that found its way past Tuukka Rask for the Isles’ second-period equalizer. Like the rest of the team, Lauzon struggled clearing pucks out of his own end, coughing up a handful of turnovers resulting in lengthy defensive zone shifts in the middle stanza and early in overtime.
