    The first period offered just that, where the Bruins and Sharks finished nearly even in shots without a goal on the scoreboard.

    With a renewed stand on their end, the Boston offense did its part in the second period with Danton Heinen and Jake DeBrusk finding the back of the net. The Bruins took control in that period, dominating the shot margin 18-6.
