The Bruins dominance of the Canucks continued well into the third period as they got goals from Daniel Paille, Mark Recchi, Chris Kelly, and Michael Ryder to help give the Bruins a 8-1 win in Game 3 and to get back into the Stanley Cup finals cutting the series lead to 2-1.
Tim Thomas’s shutout bid was spoiled by Jannik Hansen’s goal but he made 40 stops nonetheless to get the Bruins the win they needed to get back into the series.
We’ll have much more on the way throughout the night with reaction from the Bruins and Canucks after a chippy and bombastic game.
