Even as the Bruins fell behind two games to none, even as the odds and the history tilted against them, they braced themselves for the long game.

Carolina was clearly formidable. Three regular-season losses made that clear to the Bruins.

But the Hurricanes were an upstart. The Bruins were a team with postseason war stories.

Add this one to the list.

The Bruins forced Game 7 with a 5-2 win Thursday at TD Garden.

“I love it,” said Bruin coach Bruce Cassidy. “This is what you play for. Guys should be excited. Game 7, Stanley Cup playoffs. Home or road. We’d rather be at home, not going to lie to you, but we’d play them on Mars if we had to. That’s what it’s all about. I’m sure they’d say the same thing.”

Sort of.

Faced with a winner-takes-all scenario, Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour understood the unpredictability of a Game 7.
