HIGHLIGHTS
The Devils opened the scoring late in the first period when Kyle Palmieri got his stick on a Ty Smith shot to beat Halak.
Patrice Bergeron appeared to tie things up with under two minutes remaining in the third period, but the call was overturned after a Devils challenge when the officials ruled that David Krejci had poked the puck out from under Blackwood's glove and that the play should have been blown dead.
The Bruins nearly tied the score again with 1.1 seconds remaining, but Blackwood made a sensational pad save that held up after video review.
