This game started pretty good, with plenty of hustle from the B’s as they took on a similarly “Resting everyone halfway important” Lightning squad, trading chances back and forth until late in the period when David Krejci and Charlie McAvoy combined to get a good shot past Pasquale, and put the Bruins up 1-0!
The shot looked like McAvoy, but upon further inspection they did indeed give the goal to Krejci, who got his stick on it. Still, great start.
And just before the period ended, Danton Heinen put up an absolutely wicked shot from out of nowhere to double that lead to 2-0!
