Towards the end of the first period, Nikita Zadorov took a run at Matthew Tkachuk, and got a penalty for cross-checking. During the penalty kill a scary scene developed for former Boston Bruins players brother.
Brandon Carlo went to clear the puck out of the Boston Bruins zone while on the penalty kill and hit Adam Boqvist, the brother of Jesper Boqvist right in the face.
