The Boston Bruins blew a two-goal lead in the third period for the second time in four games. But unlike their ‘Mile High collapse’ against the Colorado Avalanche a week ago Wednesday, they kept the Seattle Kraken at bay, escaping with a 3-2 win following David Pastrnak’s second power-play goal of the night.
In certain moments, the Bruins responded well, like on Yanni Gourde’s hit from behind on Urho Vaakaninen early in the middle stanza.
At times, Bruce Cassidy’s squad played down to their competition, as highlighted by their rather pedestrian pace to start the third period.
