BOSTON — Cody Eakin scored the lone goal for the Golden Knights in a 4-1 loss to the Boston Bruins on Sunday at TD Garden.
The Knights finished 1-3 on their road trip through the Atlantic Division.
Coach Gerard Gallant broke up the top line of William Karlsson, Jonathan Marchessault and Reilly Smith in the second period in hopes of finding an offensive spark, but to little avail.
Marchessault joined Eakin and Alex Tuch on one line, and that group connected with 9:05 remaining in the second when Tuch drove hard to the net and sent a one-hand pass to Eakin in front to cut Boston’s lead to 3-1.
