The hard-earned victory did not come without its share of physicality, an aspect of the series in which Bruins’ defenseman Charlie McAvoy was more than involved.

The Black N’ Gold should heed the lyrical advice of Tina Turner’s Goldeneye:
“But now my time has come and time, time is not on your side!”
