BOSTON — Sean Kuraly scored to break a third-period tie and assisted on another goal to help the Boston Bruins rally from a two-goal deficit and beat the St. Louis Blues, 4-2, on Monday night in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals. Tuukka Rask stopped 18 shots for Boston, which fell behind, 2-0, on goals from Brayden Schenn and Vladimir Tarasenko. But the Bruins outshot the Blues by 18-3 in the second period — and by 38-20 in the game — to take the opener in the best-of-seven series. Game 2 is Wednesday night. It had been 17,914 days since the Blues’ last appearance in the Stanley Cup finals, when they lost to Orr’s Bruins in four games.
