The Boston Bruins have a four-game winning streak after exploding for four unanswered goals in the third period to defeat the Edmonton Oilers 5-2, improving their record 7-2-0 in the last nine games. Late in the first period, the Oilers opened up the scoring on the power play after David Krejci was sent to the box for a double minor high sticking penalty. Boyd Gordon got to the rebound before Dougie Hamilton could swipe it out of the goal.

Nothing came in the second period as the Oilers dominated play in the latter half. Early on in the third period, it appeared that things would continue to go the Oilers way, as Mark Arcobello beat Tuukka Rask just 1:44 into the period.

After the Bruins were frustrated by what they felt were quick whistles that denied them goals off of Edmonton rebounds, they finally broke through to tie the game and then quickly took a commanding lead. They scored three goals in 2:34, with Loui Eriksson kicking off the goal extravaganza.
