The Boston Bruins arrived in Ohio on Monday. They’re set to resume their series with the Blue Jackets on Tuesday in Game 3 with Game 4 coming 48 hours.
The Bruins would like nothing more than to reclaim home ice advantage in enemy territory. But this two-game trip is more than a pair of hockey games for one of Boston’s bottom-six cogs.
Third-year forward Sean Kuraly isn’t a stranger to returning to his Ohio roots. He skated in two regular-season tilts inside Nationwide Arena during his Boston tenure. But this homecoming is a little different with a trip to the Eastern Conference finals on the line.
