Recap: Three-goal third period lifts Bruins to a 5-3 win over Tampa

The Bruins kicked off their mini Florida trip in style on Monday night, turning a 1-0 deficit into a 5-1 lead before settling for a 5-3 final in Tampa.

The B’s scored three times in the middle period, with nine different skaters factoring in those three goals (three different scorers, six different assisters...assistants?).

The win was the Bruins’ seventh in a row.

It didn’t start off great for the B’s, as Tampa ran the table for much of the early part of the first period before Nick Paul cashed in on a chance from the slot to make it 1-0 Tampa.
