Brayden Point’s goal 5:12 into overtime ended the Lightning’s 5-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Oliver Bjorkstrand gave Columbus a 4-2 lead early in the third period, but Tampa Bay knotted the score on goals by Kevin Shattenkirk and Anthony Cirelli over the final eight minutes of the period.

Point’s goal was his second OT tally of the series. He also ended the five-overtime marathon in the opener.

The Bruins closed out their series by scoring a pair of second-period goals to beat the Hurricanes, 2-1.

Boston trailed 1-0 entering the final five minutes of the middle stanza before scoring twice on the power play, the first from David Krejci with 4:40 left. Patrice Bergeron put the B’s on top for good with just 3.2 seconds remaining in the period.

David Pastrnak had two assists in his return to the lineup. Pastrnak was injured in the series opener.

Jarolslav Halak made 23 saves and was perfect after Haydn Fleury beat him midway through the first period.

Nathan MacKinnon’s two goals and two assists were among the Avalanche highlights in a 7-1 drubbing of the Coyotes. MacKinnon scored twice in 58 seconds of the second period to put Colorado up 5-0.

Nazem Kadri also scored twice for the second straight game to finish with five goals in the series. J.T. Compher had a goal and an assist to back Philipp Grubauer, who turned back 23 shots.
