Bruins 3, Canucks 2 (OT)

 

The mighty Boston Bruins make it back-to-back wins after their awful six-game losing streak with an OT win in Vancouver. Hometown boy Fraser Minten scored the OT goal, as well as the game's first in the opening period. Elias Lindholm found the back of the net in the second. 

Former Bruin Jake DeBrusk led the Canucks with seven shots on goal, but never scored. Former BU Terrier Tom Willander made two shots and two blocks, but likewise didn't score.

The Bruins improve to 22-18-2 on the season, fifth in the Atlantic Division and seven points back from first place, which is now occupied by Tampa Bay.

The West Coast road trip continues - next, the Bruins will play the Kraken in Seattle on Tuesday night (10:00 pm).
