The Boston Bruins’ penalty kill and some quick opening minute goals helped propel the team to a 4-0 shutout victory over the Vancouver Canucks at the TD Garden on Thursday night.
Linus Ullmark earned his first shutout of the season with the win, stopping 17 shots. It’s his 7th career shutout.
It was a big bounce back win for the Bruins after Tuesday’s lackluster performance.
“I just cared how tenacious and aggressive we were going to be mentally,” Jim Montgomery said. “I thought our penalty kill led us there.”
Brad Marchand scored a shorthanded goal just 32 seconds into the game while the Bruins added yet another on the PK later in the period from Danton Heinen to make it a 2-0 game after the first 20 minutes.
