📰Game Recap

The Boston Bruins built an early three-goal lead in the first period and held on behind Jeremy Swayman's 40 saves to defeat the Florida Panthers 4-1. Elias Lindholm opened the scoring at 4:50 of the first period with assists from Casey Mittelstadt and Charlie McAvoy. Michael Eyssimont followed at 6:11, assisted by Fraser Minten, and Morgan Geekie extended the lead to 3-0 at 15:59 with help from David Pastrnak and Pavel Zacha. Florida got on the board at 18:05 when Carter Verhaeghe scored off passes from Brady Tkachuk and Matthew Tkachuk.
