NFL Draft recap
The second round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs certainly has gotten off to a thrilling start. The action continued on Friday with one game going to overtime.
For the second straight game, the Florida Panthers ran away and hid from the Boston Bruins in their conference semifinal series. The Panthers led 4-0 early in the third period before the Bruins even got on the board. Boston cut the deficit to 4-2, but that was as close as the game would get. The Panthers salted away a Game 3 win with a couple late goals for a 6-2 final score.
Matthew Tkachuk added three assists to his postseason tally, and he’s now up to 13 points in eight games played. On the Bruins’ side of things, offense continues to be a struggle, and Brad Marchand didn’t even record a shot on goal.
In the late game on Friday, the Edmonton Oilers and Vancouver Canucks went back and forth all game. Vancouver took a 3-2 lead into the third period, but Connor McDavid found the back of the net for the first time in the series to even things at 3-3. In overtime, Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard got a friendly bounce off the stick of Canucks defenseman Ian Cole for the game-winning goal, and that series is tied 1-1 heading to Edmonton.
On Saturday night, the Carolina Hurricanes will try to avoid getting swept by the New York Rangers in Game 4. After that, the Colorado Avalanche and Dallas Stars will play a pivotal Game 3 in Denver with that series knotted at 1-1.
