First minute of the second period the Bruins pour out two more goals. Morgan Geekie on a puck that pinballed in front and then a super duper sauce special from JVR to Pavel Zacha for a chance in all alone. Bruins up 4-0 and now running away from the Canucks
The two shorties are the story of the opening 20 minutes, but with Vancouver’s top two forward lines on the ice 5-on-5 the shots were 5-1 in Boston’s favour. #Canucks
