After stealing home-ice advantage in Buffalo, the Bruins will look to take a 2-1 lead in their first-round series when they face the Sabres in Game 3 on Thursday night.

Boston didn't let the disappointment of a Game 1 collapse drag it down in Game 2, scoring the first four goals of the matchup on the way to a 4-2 win. Viktor Arvidsson scored two goals in the road victory, and David Pastrnak had two assists.

Now, the Bruins will try to carry that momentum back to Boston and electrify the TD Garden crowd. Can they take down the Atlantic Division's top team?
