Pastrnak clutch late as Bruins take series lead over Blue Jackets. MORE:
Rask got some help from the post when Matt Duchene stretched out to try to tip the tying goal in with less than a minute remaining and Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky off for an extra skater. In all, six goals were scored in the third, four during a 3 1/2-minute span that turned Boston's 2-0 lead into a 3-3 tie.
With Hall of Famer Bobby Orr greeting the team before the game and then watching from a box, the Bruins led 1-0 after one period and took a 2-0 lead early in the third when Connor Clifton's crossing pass came through the crease to Marchand and he one-timed it toward the upper right corner. Bobrovsky stretched out his glove to block it, but the effort caused him to fall forward onto the ice.
Just 43 seconds later, Pastrnak wristed the puck in from the left circle to restore Boston's 2-goal lead. Fifty-one seconds after that, the Blue Jackets cut it to 3-2 on Ryan Dzingel's goal and less than two minutes after that they tied it on a slapshot from the high slot by Dean Kukan.
