The Boston Bruins secured a 4-3 win over the Philadelphia Flyers with an overtime goal from Pavel Zacha, marking their fourth consecutive victory.

Brad Marchand equalized the match near the end of regulation, and Trent Frederic contributed by scoring twice for Boston, who have won seven of their last nine games under the guidance of interim coach Joe Sacco.

Philadelphia's Matvei Michkov netted two goals in the first period in what became their second consecutive defeat. The Flyers also saw a goal from Cam York.

The Flyers have experienced back-to-back losses after taking the lead in the third period of both games.

Among other noteworthy updates, Flyers rookie Michkov continues to shine as a top scorer among his peers with nine goals and twenty-two points, while Bruins coach Sacco is still testing different line combinations, including David Pastrnak and Brad Marchand as part of the leading line.

The Bruins clinched the season series against the Flyers with a 2-1 record. They are now set to begin a five-game stretch on the road, whereas the Flyers are preparing to host Utah on Sunday.
