Brad Marchand is heating up.
The development couldn’t have come at a better time for the Bruins’ captain, who carried an eight-game goal drought entering Boston’s back-to-back weekend slate. And Marchand’s latest run came at just the right time for the Bruins, who endured their toughest three-game regular-season skid under Jim Montgomery earlier in the week.
Now, the Bruins enter a new week with a three-game win streak. They can thank Marchand for the last two victories.
Marchand bailed the Bruins out in Toronto after they relinquished another lead late in regulation, scoring in the final seconds of a thrilling 3-on-3 overtime to secure Boston’s 4-3 win on Saturday.
