At 1:08, Coyle gave Boston the lead and started their third-period onslaught. Coyle’s drive at the net front, which he
took down the left side, was set up by David Pastrnak.
Beecher attempted to grab his own rebound outside the crease again at 3:45. The play was initiated by newly
acquired defenseman Andrew Peeke, who slid the puck into the middle from the right circle.
At 4:04, DeBrusk cut down the right side to slip a loose puck past an outstretched Sandstrom, extending Boston’s
lead to 5-2.
With 5:48 remaining in regulation, Deslauriers scored, and then Frost broke through the defense to score a goal in
the crease that went between the legs. Two goals in 1:02 for Philadelphia put the score at one once more.
