The Boston Bruins fell to the St. Louis Blues, 5-1, as they lacked finished and the Blues capitalized on their chances on Monday night at the TD Garden.
David Pastrnak scored the lone goal for the Bruins on a night where the B’s outshot the Blues 37-22 — but just didn’t have any puck luck.
There wasn’t a shortage of opportunities for the Bruins, but rather poor execution to find the back of the net tonight.
“You’re going to have nights like this,” Jim Montgomery said.
While the Bruins got off to a slow start, the Blues found themselves up 2-0 after the first period, taking a two-goal lead at the end of the period seconds into a 5-on-3 power play.
