Bruins-Lightning takeaways: B’s fail to secure win in closing moments
Jeremy Swayman put forth another solid showing, but the Boston Bruins could not compensate for how much they got outplayed.
The Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning traded blows in the third period. But Boston couldn’t clear the puck from harm when it mattered most, surrendering the tying goal in the closing seconds of the third and the game-winner early in overtime.
Tanner Jeannot opened the scoring, driving hard to the net following a defensive miscue. His tally was a microcosm of how the Bruins struggled to prevent rush chances in the first period.
