Throughout the entire playoffs Sean Kuraly has played amazing. He has been able to rack up goals at a pretty impressive pace for a 4th liner. He notched his 3rd of the postseason on Monday night.
Both Noel Acciari and Kuraly were fighting in front of the net and Acciari found Kuraly to give the Bruins the lead. It was a game-changing goal that gave fans confident that the team would be just fine.
Also Kuraly had a beautiful pass to set up Connor Clifton’s goal that started off the Bruins comeback. The line tallied a goal and 3 assists in Game 1.
If Boston’s 4th line continues to play as they did on Monday night the Bruins will be lifting the Stanley Cup in no time.
