The Columbus Blue Jackets faced elimination in game six. Either the team would force a game seven back in Boston, or the Boston Bruins would move on to the Eastern Conference Finals to face the waiting Carolina Hurricanes.
Here’s what happened.
First Period
Boston looked to have taken an early lead, but a goal by Sean Kuraly was overturned for goaltender interference on Joakim Nordstrom.
After 20 minutes, the teams held serve tied at zero.
Second Period
Charlie McAvoy tried to decapitate Josh Anderson and only got two minutes because this league is terrible.
