The Bruins were able to get a goal on special teams, though it wasn’t with a man advantage.
Trailing 1-0 in the first period of Game 3, Boston went on the penalty kill when forward Erik Haula tripped Carolina forward Jesper Fast. In the first 50 seconds of the penalty kill, the Bruins prevented the Hurricanes from even attempting a shot.
Roughly a minute into their power play, the Hurricanes committed an unforced turnover in the Bruins’ zone. Forward Charlie Coyle ended up with the puck to start a 2-on-1 rush with Jake DeBrusk. Coyle passed the puck over to DeBrusk, who skated along the boards.
