The Bruins have to figure out what happened in the second game of the series if they would like to have a chance of winning the 3rd game in Columbus. The downside is the Bruins really let the Blue Jackets back into the game and the physical play the Bruins were playing in the second game helped to cost them the game as they spent quite a bit of time in the penalty box.
With the Blue Jackets they would like to jump out to an early lead and be able to hold the lead down. Yes, the Blue Jackets had to battle back in the second game of the series, but it was a battle that the Blue Jackets proved they were up to and even into the double overtime the Blue Jackets showed they were team that was worthy of the competition and definitely were able to have a great game and pull even with the very competitive Bruins team.
