Boston allowed a goal in the first period and two in the second in its 3-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 4 on Saturday afternoon.

Brayden Point fed the puck to a net-front Palat who buried it for the 1-0 lead.

Things became volatile once Cedric Paquette hit Karson Kuhlman in the back, which Nick Ritchie didn’t feel when he took Paquette to the corner, resulting in a penalty for Ritchie.

Palat one-timed a pass from Kucherov for the 2-0 edge.

Nick Ritchie won a five-minute primary mark to face Yanni Gourde at 6:28 to play on a play where the record obviously left Gourde.

And the Lightning opened a three-goal lead.

Lightning beat the Bruins in 12-10.
