BOSTON (AP) — Brad Marchand had very little room and not much time.He got the right bounce.Marchand banked home a power-play goal off the far post from the bottom of the right circle 4:29 into overtime http://www.officialislanders.com/authentic-adidas-mathew-barzal-jersey , lifting the Boston Bruins over the Dallas Stars 2-1 on Monday night.“I heard it,” he said. “I didn’t know where it went. I heard the crowd erupt.”David Pastrnak also scored on the man advantage for Boston, which had lost two of three. Tuukka Rask made 24 saves.“I think I just wanted to be solid and feel good about the game,” said Rask, who has struggled this season. “At the end of the day, we played a pretty decent game — from my part, too.”Radek Faksa had a short-handed goal for the Stars, who are 3-1-1 on a six-game trip. Former Bruins goaltender Anton Khudobin stopped 33 shots.“It was a little weird because I never ever played against the Bruins in TD Garden,” said Khudobin http://www.officialislanders.com/authentic-adidas-nick-leddy-jersey , who played for Boston in parts of the years 2012-13 and 2016-18.“It was like the first time — like a first game,” he said. “That was the experience.”The teams were tied at 1 just more than five minutes in.In overtime, the Bruins had a two-man power play after Jason Dickinson and Esa Lindell were whistled for minors 11 seconds apart.“It wasn’t our best game, but we gave our team a chance to win on the road,” Faksa said.With the World Series trophy won by the Boston Red Sox in the building before the game, “Dirty Water” was played briefly over the sound system after Marchand’s walk-off winner — a song played after victories at Fenway Park. It was his franchise-best 13th career OT goal.Earlier in OT, Patrice Bergeron hit a post with just more than two minutes to play before Rask made a glove save on Jamie Benn at the end of a 2-on-1 break on the ensuing rush.“I actually thought Bergy’s went in,” Marchand said. “I kind of stopped playing for a second.”Despite being outshot 9-8 in the second period, the Bruins hit a post http://www.floridapanthersteamshops.com/authentic-james-reimer-jersey , a crossbar, missed on an excellent chance on a 2-on-1 break and had a goal disallowed late in the period.Noel Acciari hit the right post with a wrister from the right circle early in the period, Torey Krug hit a crossbar midway in and Anders Bjork had a goal waved off after he collected a rebound and tucked a backhand into the net. The puck was momentarily covered by Khudobin before squirting loose, causing one of the referees to blow his whistle, halting play.Boston had another good chance early in the third when Bergeron’s wrist shot from the slot deflected off Khudobin and slid just wide of the right post.Trailing 1-0, Boston tied it when Bergeron set up Pastrnak’s one-timer from the slot 5:11 into the opening period.The Stars had jumped ahead 1-0 when Faksa flipped a shot over Rask 3:51 into the game.NOTES: The Bruins honored local military members, veterans and their families as part of Military Appreciation Night.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Alex Ovechkin thought he had a chance to score every time he shot the puck and came away disappointed he finished with just one goal.Ovechkin scored his NHL-leading 29th goal of the season, extended his point streak to a career-best 14 games and had the shootout winner to help the Washington Capitals beat the Buffalo Sabres 4-3 on Saturday night. The Russian superstar and reigning playoff MVP continued one of the best runs of his career and fell two goals shy of becoming the first player in league history to record a hat trick in three consecutive games.“It would be nice to get another hatty or whatever,” Ovechkin said. “But nothing you can do about it.”Ovechkin did just about everything he could, putting eight shots on net and beating Buffalo goaltender Carter Hutton for the tying goal in the second period. He has 17 goals and six points during his point streak and has scored in six games in a row.An audible gasp came from the crowd each time Ovechkin had the puck on his stick in the offensive zone, and the goal was his 10th in the past six games. Yet Ovechkin sounded like a player who came up empty.“I have pretty good chances, but today, it was not my day,” Ovechkin said. “You can’t score every night.”Ovechkin is testing that limit. He’s six ahead of the next-closest player in the league, Winnipeg’s Patrik Laine http://www.hurricanesshoponline.com/authentic-justin-williams-jersey , and is on pace to surpass 60 goals at age 33.“Such a threat, especially when he’s confident and he’s shooting the puck where he wants,” said Brett Connolly, who scored the Capitals’ first goal. “He’s a bull out there, it seems like he keeps getting better and better every year.”With their captain leading the way, the defending Stanley Cup champions are on a five-game winning streak and have won 12 of their past 14 games.“There’s a really strong spirit in this team,” said Jakub Vrana, who also scored for Washington. “We just going to build on that, and it’s going to help us in the future.”Sabres captain Jack Eichel scored twice and 2018 first overall pick Rasmus Dahlin had a power-play goal for Buffalo Minnesota Wild Hoodies Womens , which had its two-game winning streak snapped. Hutton stopped 35 of the 38 shots he faced in regulation and overtime, including seven from Ovechkin.“He made some big saves all game,” defenseman Zach Bogosian said. “He did a real good job of keeping us in it and making some big saves at key times. That’s what both of our goalies have done all year. It’s been good to see.”Buffalo’s power play cashed in twice plus Eichel’s just after a Washington penalty expired, and its penalty kill was 4 for 4 against the Capitals’ vaunted unit. Going toe-to-toe and picking up a point against the defending champions showed the Sabres they could hang with the league’s best.“It’s a really good team over there,” Eichel said. “They put a lot on us. They’re not the Stanley Cup champs for no reason. They have a lot of really good players over there, some guys who are going to go to the Hall of Fame, and I think we did a lot of good things.”NOTES: Capitals G Pheonix Copley stopped 25 of 28 shots in regulation and overtime and two of three in the shootout. … Sabres D Nathan Beaulieu was injured on a hit by Tom Wilson in the second period and did not return.
