Colorado Avalanche @ Boston Bruins game recap video, on November 12, 2015.
Quick game summary
In the first period, less than two minutes into the game, Bruins Zdeno Chara scored his 2nd goal of the season, making it 1-0 Bruins. Later, Bruins Ryan Spooner scored his 4th goal of the season, a power-play goal, making it 2-0 Bruins. Later, Bruins Tyler Randell dropped the gloves with Avalanche Cody McLeod and they had an ok fight. Later, Avalanche Carl Soderberg scored, making it 2-1. Late in the period, Avalanche Francois Beauchemin scored, tying the game 2-2.
In the second period, no scoring happened. In the period, Bruins Brad Marchand was laid out by Avalanche Gabriel Landeskog with a blindside hit, that earned him a match penalty. The blindside hit looked awfully similar to the Matt Cooke cheapshot on Marc Savard. I wouldn't be surprised if Landeskog gets suspended for the hit.
