The Boston Bruins now know exactly when they must win over the New York Islanders.
The NHL announced Tuesday a potential Game 7 in the Bruins-Islanders second-round Stanley Cup Playoffs series would take place at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday at TD Garden.
New York took a 3-2 series lead over Bosotn on Monday night with a 5-4 victory in Game 5. The shorthanded Bruins are facing elimination and will be without three injured players, and possibly goaltender Tuukka Rask, too, in Game 6.
Puck drop for Game 6 is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET. NESN will air a full hour of pregame and postgame coverage, plus intermission reports on NESN.com.
If Boston wins, we’ll do it all again Friday night in Game 7.
