Goalie John Gibson was scratched because of a lower-body injury, and although his status is day-to-day, the Ducks recalled Jhonas Enroth to back up Jonathan Bernier.
Add in the Boston Bruins’ tenacious attack and it made for an intense game of near misses and little plays, often measured in inches.
Fears allayed.
Bernier turned in an amazing save in the second period, and Rickard Rakell’s second goal of the game made the Ducks winners, 5-3, at Honda Center.
