What we learned: Undisciplined Bruins enter desperation mode
RALEIGH, N.C. — A desperate Boston Bruins bunch will return home with more questions than answers.
The Bruins came out with a pep in their step in Game 2 against the Carolina Hurricanes. Their power play generated a few looks on their first attempt for a potential building block. Antti Raanta’s exit following a David Pastrnak collision prompted rookie netminder Pytor Kochetkov into his first career playoff appearance.
Yet, the undisciplined Bruins didn’t test Kochetkov until they entered desperation mode. And they began a night of self-destruction midway through the first period.
