WASHINGTON - The Bruins started Monday night on a deceiving note, allowing two quick goals by Capitals winger Conor Sheary in the opening period to quickly fall behind by two goals. But B's fans did not need to stay worried for long, with the momentum switch happening fast as David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand took advantage on the power play late in the first to tie things up and set in motion a series of six straight goals for the Black & Gold en route to a convincing 7-3 win over Washington at Capital One Arena on Tuesday night.
Six different Bruins notched multi-point games, including Matt Grzelcyk, who collected five points (goal, four assists) to become just the fifth different defenseman in B's history to accomplish that feat. Overall, nine different players produced at least a point.
