RECAP: Bruins 1, Canucks 2

Great pace in the third period, but only one point secured.

NHL: Boston Bruins at Vancouver Canucks Anne-Marie Sorvin-USA TODAY Sports

Period 1

This was a cluster mess to begin the game. Brandon Sutter there to grab the tight chance, Halak’s pad down, not pretty.

Period 2

Noel Acciari needs some repairs.

Period 3

After a barrage of chances, Joakim Nordstrom breaks through!

Overtime

What were those 3-on-3 combinations? A wide-open 2-on-2 for the Canucks and Bo Horvat seals the Bruins’ fate. It’s clear that when this team is healthier cough cough Torey Krug cough cough that it’ll have a chance to be better, but for now, they have to take it one game at a time.
