"Mackie Samoskevich opened the scoring with his third goal in as many games when he intercepted a pass deep in the offensive zone and sent a wrist shot past Swayman."
"Bennett made it 2-0 at 7:39 of the first, scoring from the slot. Boston pulled to within a goal in the closing minute of the first period."
"Minten had plenty of time to grab the puck, put it on his backhand, and beat a sprawled out Bobrovsky to make it 2-1 with 27 seconds left in the period."
"Bobrovsky, who has won five of his past seven starts, had a big challenge in the third, but held strong."
