The Boston Bruins found their groove after a rough stretch in the middle of the first period after Charlie Coyle set up Jake DeBrusk cut the deficit to 2-1 with his first goal of the season att 19:39. But a lucky bounce on Morgan Reilly’s first of the night at 5:55, and a costly turnover by Sean Kuraly leading to Dmytro Timashov’s first career tally at 15:54 put the Bruins’ in the rare spot of catch-up mode.
