Marchand scores in OT, Bruins rally past Canadiens 2-1
BOSTON — Brad Marchand waited patiently along the boards, sizing up the situation before swooping around the net and finding his spot to shoot.
Marchand scored 2:06 into overtime to lift the Boston Bruins to a 2-1 comeback win over the Canadiens on Saturday.
“You’re just looking for an opening, that’s kind of how it was,” he said. “You could tell they were a little tired. You’re kind of just waiting for that opening to show itself and luckily it did.”
It was the Bruins’ third straight victory and completed their four-game sweep of the season series with their archrivals for the first time since 1994-95.
