Turnovers and some shoddy play at times on Saturday night at the TD Garden had the Boston Bruins tied with the Vancouver Canucks following regulation, 4-4, and off to overtime. As they have done multiple times this year, the Black and Gold dominated overtime, but failed to score.
To say that the Canucks survived overtime would be an understatement. When the five-minute extra session ended, it was off to a shootout, where both teams were 2-0 this season. Something had to give, and one team was going to suffer its first setback of the season.
When the dust settled, it was the Bruins who dropped their first shootout of the season after it went seven rounds before a goal was scored.
