There wasn’t a ton happening in the first period, BUT: David Backes chose “Baby Shark” for his “Bruins Beats” selection, which rules.
After previous PP attempts looked awkward and out of sync, the B’s get it going. A beautiful cross-ice feed from Torey Krug is buried by Brad Marchand. 1-0 Bruins.
Shortly after the Bruins take the lead, Ottawa ties it up. Miscommunication between Patrice Bergeron and Zdeno Chara leads to the puck sliding to Jean-Gabriel Pageau in the slot.
