"Oct. 21 vs Florida - In Brad Marchand's homecoming, the B's battle back from an early two-goal deficit and then another late one-goal disadvantage to tie it on Morgan Geekie's 6-on-5 goal at 18:29. But in the final minute, the B's allow the Panthers to attack the zone with speed and Carter Verhaeghe's shot goes off the post then Andrew Peeke's skate for the GWG with 26 seconds left."
"Nov. 19 at Anaheim - Despite controlling the play for much of the first two periods, the B's find themselves in a two-goal hole in the second period. Michael Eyssimont's goal late in the second gets them to within a goal and Geekie ties it on the PP at 7:39 of the third. But then the Ducks dominate the next 10 minutes and Ian Moore's blue line shot beats a screened Joonas Korpisalo for the winner."
The Bruins have lost five games after being tied late in the third period, leaving them with no loser points in those contests. Specific losses include Oct. 19 at Utah when JJ Peterka turned a takeaway into Dylan Guenther's game-winner, Oct. 21 vs. Florida when Morgan Geekie tied it but the Panthers scored in the final minute, Oct. 23 vs. Anaheim after a defensive miscommunication, Nov. 13 at Ottawa following a failed breakout and Tim Stutzle's backdoor goal, and Nov. 19 at Anaheim when Ian Moore's blue-line shot decided the game. Converting even a few of those into overtime losses would materially improve standings.
