The Boston Bruins beat long time rival Montreal 4-2 on Saturday night at TD Garden to improve to 3-1-1 on the year.

After getting 5 of 6 points on an opening road trip, the Bruins returned home on Thursday and lost their home opener against the New Jersey Devils 4-3, but also lost their top left winger, Brad Marchand, in the first period to injury. So there was some concern when 3-1 Montreal came to town last night.

Left winger Milan Lucic would eliminate any of that doubt with two first period goals, giving Boston all the cushion they would need to win. Montreal would close the gap to one goal in the second period on Mark Ribeiro's 1st goal of the season, but David Pastranak would score late in the period on a nifty backhand move to seal the victory.

The teams would exchange goals in the third period, with the outcome never being in doubt. Boston will have two nights off before the Minnesota Wild come to town next Tuesday. The Wild are 3-2 on the young season.

Brad Marchand returned to the Bruins lineup last night as Boston defeated the New York Rangers in a 4-1 victory, improving to 7-3-1 on the season and tying them for first place with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

David Krejci scored the game's opening goal, his 5th of the season, knocking home a rebound off a Milan Lucic one timer. Brandon Pirri answered for New York at 18:08 of the first period, sending the teams to the locker room with the game tied at 1.

In the 2nd period, Lucic scored his 3rd goal at 3:31, tipping in a Zdeno Chara slap pass. Frank Vatrano would score his fifth goal of the year six minutes later, giving Boston a 2 goal cushion heading to the final period.

The Rangers would try to push the play in the third period, slanting the ice with 8 shots in the first 5 minutes; but goaltender Tuukka Rask was up to the challenge, holding the fort with 28 saves on the night for the victory. David Pastranak would score in the final minutes to put the icing on the cake for the Bruins.

They will next play on Monday against the Buffalo Sabres.

Is it just on my end, or is anyone else having difficulties with the hockey box score, they don't seem to be displaying right when I'm looking at them, and there is a line of text below that i can't seem to get rid of.

edit, i think i figured out how to get rid of the text at the bottom, but some of the boxscores still don't look right. i had to remove it from the Montreal game.

Yeah those tables haven't been updated so the <>script ********> part of the HTML code doesn't seem to work. Take out the < script>********> part and you should be good. Happens when I try to embed tweets too. For some reason the site censors that code
