3 takeaways from the Bruins’ OT loss in Edmonton

COMMENTARY

Following a disappointing loss in Calgary, the Bruins bounced back with a stronger performance Thursday night in Edmonton but eventually fell to the Oilers in overtime, 3-2.

In an extremely physical battle, the Bruins held a 29-22 shot advantage and created numerous scoring chances but didn’t do enough to topple Edmonton in the second — and already final — regular season meeting between the two sides. Boston did, however, pick up a hard-fought point in the effort.

Here are three key takeaways from the Oilers’ overtime victory over the Bruins in western Canada.
