Deen’s Daily: Finally, It’s 2-0 Avs; Bruins, Lightning, and Mammoth Fight Back; Mehta Introduced To New Jersey

The hero came from Tampa Bay’s side, as J.J. Moser recorded his first career playoff game more than 12 minutes into extra time to even the series.

Game 2 Recap — Bruins 4 at Sabres 2 — (Series tied 1-1)

The Bruins scored the first four goals and didn’t give up a lead this time. Buffalo got two late in the third, but it only cut half of the lead. As the series shifts to Boston, you have to imagine the Sabres are going to need to find a way to get engaged offensively far earlier than they did in the first two games.

They also can’t let Morgan Geekie score on a backhand from center ice on Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. I’d imagine Alex Lyon, who entered the game in relief, will get the nod in Game 3.

Game 2 Recap — Mammoth 3 at Golden Knights 2 — (Series tied 1-1)

Utah has its first-ever playoff win. Logan Cooley scored the go-ahead goal with just six minutes remaining in regulation to put the Mammoth ahead as the series comes to Delta Center.
