Last night’s game was frustrating, to say the least. As I mentioned in my three keys article from yesterday, matchups between the Boston Bruins and Carolina Hurricanes typically end up being physical, old-time hockey style games. Last night was no exception.
The Carolina Hurricanes managed to keep up with and, at times, even seemingly gain momentum over the Boston Bruins for the first 55 minutes or so of the game. It wasn’t until the last 5 minutes of the game that the Carolina Hurricanes would allow two goals, both deflections from Boston’s forwards camped out in James Reimer‘s crease.
