Bruins vs. Capitals RECAP: Finish continues to be a problem as B’s drop 3-1 decision to DC

And things started so well, too.

1st Period:

The Bruins started the scoring with an incredibly fortuitous bounce from Parker Wotherspoon lobbing the puck up-ice, which bounced off a stanchion, off of Logan Thompson’s pad, and directly to Justin Brazeau, who tucked it behind Thompson to get the B’s up 1-0!

Nothing like a little weird scorin’.

Unfortunately, it wouldn’t stay this way, as just over mid-way through the period, the Bruins would be caught in their own end, with Pierre-Luc Dubois avoiding contact in order to feed the puck out to Aliaksei Protas, who evened things up at 1-1.
