Bruins Blow Lead, Lose to Ducks in Overtime for First Defeat of Season

Anaheim Ducks overcome two-goal deficit in the final two minutes of regulation play to secure a 4-3 overtime victory against Boston Bruins, ending their promising start to the season.

Boston Bruins were unable to secure their seventh consecutive win after losing a two-goal lead to Anaheim Ducks in the final two minutes of the match.
With 1:55 remaining in the games, Leo Carlsson brought the Ducks within a goal. Shortly after, Troy Terry tied the score at 3-3, pushing the game to overtime where Mason McTavish completed the comeback.
Despite the loss, Bruins' defenseman Charlie McAvoy had a standout performance, assisting all three of the Bruins' goals and leading the team with 26:11 of ice time.
Anaheim's turnaround was driven by significant contributions from Carlsson and Terry, each of whom finished with a goal and an assist.
The Bruins' lapse has caused criticism, with coach Jim Montgomery expressing his disappointment in the team's inability to close the game while holding a 3-1 lead in the final minutes.
Reaction to the defeat was tempered by an acknowledgment of the more significant tragedies occurring in the state, with the team offering condolences to those impacted by the recent mass shootings in Lewiston.
