UNIONDALE, N.Y. (AP) — The Boston Bruins showed their depth and kept up their domination of the New York Islanders.
Sean Kuraly scored twice and Tuukka Rask earned his 45th career shutout as Boston beat the Islanders 5-0 on Tuesday night.
Noel Acciari, Patrice Bergeron and Jake DeBrusk also had goals to help the Bruins win their second straight since a three-game skid that followed their 19-game point streak (15-0-4). Boston has won seven consecutive meetings between the teams — eight in a row in New York.
“From the start all the way to the finish, we were pretty good,” said Kuraly, who had just six goals coming in and ended a 23-game drought.
