Bruin Casey Mittelstadt took the puck away in the Tampa Bay defensive zone and dished to teammate Cole Koepke, who darted in alone on Lightning goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy. Koepke attempted to sneak the puck through Vasilevskiy, and an unlucky bounce allowed the puck to find the back of the net 10:32 into the period.

Vasilevskiy made 21 saves in a 4-0 loss to Boston on Saturday. He allowed three goals. Saturday's defeat was a tough one for Vasilevskiy. The first Boston goal came after Lightning forward Oliver Bjorkstrand tried to clear the puck from the crease and banked it off his goaltender's pad and into the net.

The Boston Bruins took a 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday at AMALIE Arena. Cole Koepke gave Boston a 1-0 lead in the second period before a tough bounce resulted in a goal for Bruins forward Mark Kastelic in the third period for a 2-0 advantage.
