The Bruins took on the Capitals in an intense battle last night, winning the game 3-2 in shootout.
The game was tied 2-2 after the third period and overtime ended with no goals which sent the game to a shootout. The Bruins had a surprising hero as defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk scored the game winner in the 5th round.
