Remember that line about how not even optimists thought the Bruins would go up 4-0 against Tampa?
What about scoring seven in Washington? It’s a week for the optimists among us! The Bruins fell behind 2-0 in the first period then steamrolled the Capitals, winning 7-3.
Conor Sheary scored twice for the Caps within the first 13 minutes of the game, but then this happened to Brad Marchand:
David Pastrnak got the Bruins on the board with a PPG with around 90 seconds left in the first. 2-1 Washington.
And Marchand earned a measure of revenge to tie it at 2-2 just 40 seconds later.
