But its extremely difficult with him in front." On the opening shift of the second period, Marchand broke in and fired a wrist shot that caromed into the net off the far post, pushing Boston ahead 2-1. Carons goal gave the Bruins a 3-1 edge midway into the second period. Reilly Smith backhanded a pass from the slot to Caron, who one-timed a shot past Howard from the top of the right faceoff circle.

It came just 15 seconds after Niklas Kronwall was sent off for holding. "In the second period thats something we talked about," Krug said of Charas play in front. "I think I talked to Krej (David Krejci) about it, What should I do with the puck? He said, Just give it to Z, hes going to win every battle." The Red Wings tied it late in the period when Zetterberg collected a rebound in front and slipped a shot by Rask inside the right post. The score came after a pass along the boards appeared to hit a glove on Detroits bench and dropped to the ice. The Bruins briefly stopped while the Red Wings broke out with the puck. Rask made a nice sliding stop on Justin Abdelkaders bid from in close a few minutes before Zetterbergs goal. Boston outshot the Red Wings 37-26. "They won in every statistic tonight," Howard said. "Every battle. Im not going to make that excuse that we were tired or anything like that because I kind of think its pathetic."
