RECAP: Bruins lose to Panthers in spectacular fashion, squandering a four-goal lead

First Period

Little occurred that’s worth reporting. It took almost the whole period to get to ten shots TOTAL between the teams (though, #fancystats prevail: Boston had double the chances as Florida). Zdeno Chara stood up and then sat down Colton Sceviour at the Bruins’ blue line, which was fun.

Urho Vaakanainen had a solid debut, and played X:XX minutes through the first frame. Definitely got roughed up a little by a passing Panther as they exited the zone, but otherwise solid. I mean, no goals against while you’re on the ice is decent.
