It wasn’t the return from break that the Boston Bruins were looking for today, as they fell, 2-1, to the Washington Capitals at the TD Garden.
The Bruins’ game progressed as the game went on, with a great second period, but the team’s play was riddled with overpassing and slow decision making.
Here are the highlights:
First period:
The Capitals opened the scoring at 6:28 of the first period on the power play.
Along the goal line, Nicklas Backstrom picked up the loose puck from Marcus Johansson’s attempts for a low shot past Jeremy Swayman.
