BostonBruins.com- Knowing they were on the brink of losing a critical two points on Monday night against Vancouver, Brad Marchand took matters into his own hands during the third period, scoring the game-tying and go-ahead goals, as well as an empty-netter, in a 6-3 victory over the Canucks.
Marchand's hat trick was the first for a Bruin this season, vaulting him to a tie for the NHL lead in goals along side Sidney Crosby with 35.
After the Bruins' victory on Monday, they will shoot for their fourth straight win on Wednesday night against the Calgary Flames, one of the hottest teams in hockey, having won their last 10 games.
The Bruins will face the Flames for the second and final time this season. Calgary won the first matchup on Nov. 25 at TD Garden 2-1.
Puck drop is scheduled for 9:00 p.m. EST on NESN and 98.5 The Sports Hub.
