"Brad Marchand's Backhand Seals Boston Bruins Overtime Triumph"

Thursday, November 7th, 2024

Brad Marchand delivered the decisive backhand goal in the final seconds of overtime, leading the Bruins to a 4-3 win against the Flames.

This goal was particularly significant for Marchand, as it came after a penalty he took earlier resulted in a Calgary power-play goal. Boston also saw contributions from Hampus Lindholm, Pavel Zacha, and Cole Koepke in scoring, with David Pastrnak providing a pair of assists.

The Flames, who had started the season with four consecutive wins, were down 3-1 as the third period began. Yegor Sharangovich netted a power-play goal, and Nazem Kadri equalized the score at 9:55, pushing the game into overtime.

During the overtime period, Elias Lindholm caused a turnover that set up Marchand to score his fourth goal this season, clinching the victory.

Calgary has experienced a slump, winning only three of their recent ten matches.

On the Bruins' side, Joonas Korpisalo made 34 saves, boosting his record to 3-2.

The critical moment was Marchand's goal, which occurred 20 seconds before the overtime concluded.

A notable statistic from the game is that this marked Marchand's 21st career overtime goal.

Looking ahead, the Flames are set to play against Buffalo on Saturday, while the Bruins will host Ottawa.
