PITTSBURGH -- Matt Murray made 44 saves and Sidney Crosby had three points to help the Pittsburgh Penguins defeat the Boston Bruins 5-1 at PPG Paints Arena on Sunday.
Murray is 17-4-1 this season. He has allowed one goal in each of his past three starts since surrendering seven on 28 shots in an 8-7 overtime win against the Washington Capitals on Jan. 16.
"I'm a little bit happier with these last couple games," Murray said. "You're never really where you want to be. You're always looking to improve and you're always looking to move forward, and get better."
