Game 5 of this series was everything that I thought it would be -- a hard hitting, low scoring matchup. Boston squeaked out a 2-1 win on the road, and will now try to even the series at three games apiece tonight at home in TD Gardens.
The first three games of this series involved each team finding their offensive stride on the way to victories.
In those three games the winning team scored five or more goals and held the losing team to just a single goal in each game.
Games 4 and 5 were very different -- both one goal outcomes, with no more than five goals being scored between the teams combined.
