Bruins win seventh straight game for third time this season
Pavel Zacha’s late second-period goal stood up as the game winner as the Boston Bruins continued their spectacular season with a narrow 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Monday night.
Connor McDavid scored twice to reach 50 goals on the season for the Oilers , who have lost two straight, but have still managed to go 11-4-6 in their last 21 outings.McDavid took a long stretch pass from Leon Draisaitl up the left boards before cutting in and beating Bruins starter Jeremy Swayman through the legs 2:17 into the opening frame for his league-leading 49th goal.
Boston took the lead with just under five minutes to play in the first on a nice give-and-go play with Charlie Coyle making a nice feed to Foligno, who beat Skinner stick-side for his 10th. Boston made it 3-2 with just 30 seconds to play in the second, as Zacha made a diving poke to beat Skinner’s own poke-check attempt and chip it over his shoulder and into the net for his 14th.
