Bruins Highlights & Analysis: Charlie McAvoy Plays Hero For Boston During Overtime Win Over Blues

[Applause] [Applause] and finally third period game tied at two what do you guys got to do to get the two points we got to win we got to find a way to win today all right Char thanks to maoy Fresh over the boards de Brusque to poock stolen by

Kyou makoy takes over two on one scores Charlie maoy in dramatic fashion a way to win take it into their own hands well St Louis’s I rank they thought there should have been a penalty call in the neutral zone when the Bruins fought to get the puck back they thought

The P definitely was guilty of a trip this is Bruins overtime live presented by botto.com so much to unpack in this game and this entire road trip because it’s over for the third time in this road trip the score is four through the final this time the Bruins are on

The Winning Side guys two points two points for them instead of one uh how it’s been all along leading up to this one as saw Charlie makoy the hero what did you guys make of their effort at the end of the third and into overtime it looked like they they really wanted it

They had their chances they got it well I I thought their second and third period were really good you know not perfect but really good they had a lot of good stuff we showed they highlighted the dmen getting involved we in the second intermission we showed a puck retrieval or you know especially

Stripping the pucks or blocking the pucks and then bringing them back up transitioning a a really good effort and it ends up making the road trip feel a lot better they might have gotten away with one an overtime their Razer just a little bit but sometimes better lucky

Than good I didn’t see anything Etc nothing happened nothing happened and I absolutely would say that it wasn’t a penalty if it was to the bru the other way yeah what a road trip a they did deserve to win they they dominated St Louis after the first 10 minutes after

The the goal that was disallowed or not a goal on the off sides they they really did take it to them uh I thought they put a really maximum effort in it was Coyle it was MarShon it was pack it was de Bros the forwards were really good

They were really good really good and that you you point when we were talking about the D getting shots they can’t get those shots being open like that if the forwards aren’t pushing pucks getting it deep they didn’t screw around they they didn’t second and third period so they

Did a good job and sometimes you just need that lucky break you’re going to and by the way that means you know somewhere maybe soon they’re going to have go against them hockey Gods get back at them I was going to say you can bet whatever postgame show L has they’ll

Be I was reading that again the coaches stayed on the bench trying to get the officials you know wow not happy you know it well it’s over it similar to Youth Hockey yeah yeah okay well let I shouldn’t joke about no you shouldn’t true that’s true let’s recap this road

Trip guys so 1 and three but five out of a possible eight points penalty kill gone down for y DK forward gone out L home in the B yeah yeah but a good Ro gutsy gutsy gutsy gutsy ugly uh professional all of those ditch digging type road trip

That’s what it was yeah celebrate with the night in St Louis you know have a couple beverages the mini bar yes and we’re we’re like a week about a week removed from spend all your all right guys why don’t we go to the OT goal again uh take this razor

Yeah starting right here Charlie makoy you on the two onone and it’s straight shot all the way to his old buddy Tory K uh staying right in the middle perfect decoy of David pnik listen there’s sticks in the lanes there David P steps up there sticks and legs in there and

Unfortunately goes down and listen makoy had eyes for the net all the way and and you understand why St Louis is upset in that situation right there three on three anybody goes down it’s going into a two-on-one the other way and when they score right away but what a shot

Bennington read it pretty well but makoy beat him clean yeah Kyu did a good job back pressuring on on poster knock and here you go the right Puck’s kind of there I guess he he didn’t have full control of the puck which doesn’t really matter but maybe that changed the way

They saw it I’m not quite sure uh yeah KW didn’t close out he might have been able to just second earlier right right cuz ky’s coming back and posto stayed on his meaning you know he didn’t open up he didn’t swivel he didn’t pivot to he was going to do the sweeper so

That meant his stick was back for so Kyu was just getting up there with it good credit to him that really eliminated mako’s Passover there but makoy got himself into a really good uh improved angle right he kept going towards the net and he smoked it over Bennington

Bennington you can see his reaction he’s like oh man I knew it was going there I knew I had you but you still beat me what a shot though makavo second game-winning goal versus St Louis and his sixth in his career he also scored earlier in this one his fifth of the

Season kind of driving to the net up front a little bit no and again this this was great transition in the neutral zone which the Bruins did really well this is forwards driving through Buist does a great job driving and finding maoy in the middle and then it’s all

World Talent from number 73 kicking that that puck from his feet to his stick losing a little bit of control and then making Bennington pay look at how deep they’re defense there um is that faul I I believe so here’s the transition up the ice because the it’s a three on

Three here and then you get Wide guy drive and fog is way back man I mean way back you’re going to look at that and they’re going to say you got a gap because you had Hayes coming back already going to the wide player here see it’s put wide by jvr Haze

Accelerates to the outside but now the middle ice is wide open you’re below the face off dot in fact below the hash mark holy smokes yeah that’s there’s going to be a lot of video done there cuz you could also I if that was the Bruins you

Would you would suspect that Hayes would pass him off Let the Right defenseman go hay stays in the middle let the de that would you probably expect the Bruins to play it that way Hayes is a little far down for a forward if yeah he’s got to

Chase a little longer the D now becomes no man they have jinxing each other again let do Brad Maran guys he scored twice in this one we’ll show you the first goal later but let’s start with his third period goal this yeah you know this is great

Passing ruins get on the five on three bringing it up top posture knock right there maybe you know whatever okay he want to make it work this pass from jvr doesn’t connect but by going quickly through the legs and back over to postr everybody thinks he’s going to rip it

And instead he opens up the stick blade and he just passes it touch pass basically over to Maran who has a wide open net right here opens up the stick plate I mean the quick wrist passed over snaps it no chance for Bennington no no you can see like bennington’s actually

Waiting he’s he’s probably sitting on Van re like going between his legs he probably feels pretty good with where he is right there and then not so much just just an incredible all world pass and great hands for Marshon too cuz it wasn’t like David put that that across

Nice and slowly that was that was a Sizzle pass and and he sizzled it in so that’s a great goal he felt felt like they needed another one though yeah they did number 19 that one for Brad Marsh and his 18th of the season was also his

900th career NHL point that was in the first period and here it is yeah this is great this is this this was you know I’m your captain I’m going to lead by example type play you know here again good movement through the neutral Bruns in a pretty good drop to the neutral

Zone tonight good quick shot battle in front of the net by De bruss the follow up love the stick positioning by Coy I’m going to talk about that forever but then Marian just gets himself again right to the side of the net he stops okay but now watch him right here he’s

Going to come above the line he doesn’t stay too close puts himself into a good spot stickers away right there brings it back and just lofs it up he got kind of 60 Dee wedges it razor and snaps it upstairs the other way look at lindol crashing through the middle too we

Didn’t really talk about that in the first period when we went through the highlights first I didn’t recognize it as much that he kind of sets up and drives back the defense a little bit so Brad can get that initial shot off but the real world real work is done down

Low by Coyle and Marshy great finish and the 900 points and a br picking up that that rebound you know we talked in Pre about and this one counts this one we know legit 900 yes that’s earlier few days ago but this one was was great and

And he was on a mission again early he wanted to lead his team to a good road trip right and and the finish and he did and the Finish did matter so yes Charlie McAvoy also had a couple of goals could have made him the Subaru star but

Because of this historic moment for Brad marshan he is our Subaru star of the game and there he is with now 91 points and fifth in Bruins history and he spoke with Adam pin after the game Brad congratulations I mean this is a much needed win and a great way to

Finish it yeah um you know I we just kind of had that desperation tonight I thought we played a great game even when they scored to get back into it a couple times uh we we kept going uh you know it’s a it’s a really good way to end a

Road trip Five Points out of eight uh we got to be happy about that something we can build on as far as the Milestone that you reached tonight 900 points you thought you had an Arizona you get it with a goal you got two tonight how’s

That feel yeah it feels good um you know I don’t think uh when I was younger when I started uh would a come this far um you know so just trying to be very grateful for the opportunity and uh how far you know we’ve come as a team and uh

So it’s a lot of fun every day finally I just want to get your thoughts on Jeremy Swan’s performance tonight and he was selected to his first allstar game yeah uh very happy for him he’s such a great kid and and you know he’s growing so

Much this year um you know really want to come in and prove something again and and and show that he continued to get better um you know he’s had an incredible year so very uh very happy for him had another great showing tonight kept the Senate couple big saves

At the end end and uh so yeah we’re we’re extremely happy for him congrats go celebrate thank you a little bit more on Brad marshan because this becomes his 62nd multi-goal game in Bruins history just W behind Rick Middleton all right third multi- Go game
