BOSTON - David Pastrnak scored two power-play goals - including the tying tally late in the third to force overtime - but the Bruins fell to the Tampa Bay Lightning, 4-3, on Steven Stamkos' shootout winner in the fourth round on Thursday night at TD Garden.
"Shootouts are 50/50…too bad we weren't able to get the 2 points," lamented Pastrnak. "Obviously, we got power play goals, but we definitely want to be better at 5-on-5. The whole game we still had chances, we just weren't able to cover that ice."
Here are some notes and observations from the loss that dropped Boston to 5-1-1:
