Brad Marchand passes 900 career points, Bruins beat Blues 4-3 in OT

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Charlie McAvoy scored his second goal in overtime and Brad Marchand added two goals Saturday night, leading the Boston Bruins to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues.

The game-winning goal came 1:10 into overtime when McAvoy snapped in a wrist shot.

“He’s a great talent and it was a great shot,” Bruins coach Jim Montgomery said. “That’s a goal-scorer’s shot right there.”

The final play began when Robert Thomas was tripped by David Pastrnak. McAvoy picked up the loose puck near the red line. He skated in and shot from the faceoff circle into the upper part of the goal.
