The Boston Bruins defeated the Kings 4-1 yesterday to enter a tie for the final wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. Brad Marchand opened the scoring with another wrist shot that zipped past Peter Budaj, and 11th year veteran David Krejci “iced” the game with an empty net goal from behind the defensive blue line.
Marchand’s goal was the result of a misplayed puck by Jake Muzzin, who had the puck bounce off his stick. After that, it was off to the races with only Kevin Gravel defending.
