Boston Bruins Hold Off Golden Knights in Thrilling 4-3 Victory
The Boston Bruins continued their winning streak, defeating the Vegas Golden Knights 4-3 in a nail-biting match that saw both teams give it their all. The Bruins' third win in as many games keeps them on track for another successful season.
In the first period, Charlie McAvoy sparked a three-goal flurry that set the tone for the game. His fourth goal of the season, scored just 10 seconds into a four-minute power play, got the Bruins off to a flying start. Elias Lindholm and Tanner Jeannot soon followed suit, with Lindholm netting his ninth goal of the season and Jeannot scoring on a feed from Sean Kuraly.
The Golden Knights refused to back down, however. Jack Eichel and Tomas Hertl scored in the opening minutes of the third period, cutting the deficit to 4-2. Pavel Dorofeyev's goal with just over two minutes remaining made it a one-goal game, but the Bruins held firm.
Boston goalie Joonas Korpisalo made 29 saves to secure the win, while Akira Schmid was left reeling after McAvoy's powerful shot that sparked the power play. The Golden Knights were unable to capitalize on their chances in the final minutes of the game, and Boston emerged victorious.
The Bruins' victory marks their ninth win in as many games, solidifying their position at the top of the standings. They will look to continue their winning streak when they host Montreal on Saturday night.

. and then jack eichel and tomas hertl came back like "oh no we're not done yet" 
but unfortunately for them, boston's goalie joonas korpisalo was on fire with 29 saves! i'm so hyped for the bruins' next game against montreal 
️
I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! The Golden Knights were so close to pulling off an epic comeback, but that last minute save by Korpisalo is just pure magic 
Can't wait to see if they can get their revenge against the Bruins in Montreal. And McAvoy's goal was insane 
10 seconds into a power play? What even is that?! 
️ their power play is looking solid too, Elias Lindholm just keeps churning out those goals. gotta give it to them though, the golden knights put up quite a fight 
it was a super intense game but in the end the bruins came out on top 
The Bruins are really getting into their groove this season and it's awesome to see them playing like that. That McAvoy goal was insane 
! I'm loving the way Lindholm is killing it out there, 9 goals already this season? 
. Can't wait to see what the Bruins do next against Montreal 
he got his 4th goal of the season just 10 seconds into a power play 
! elias lindholm and tanner jeannot too were on fire 
but in the end boston came out on top 
. joonas korpisalo was a total rockstar 
. can't wait for next saturday's game against montreal 
also, why so many goals in the first period? feels like a game of pucks-in-and-goals-out rather than actual hockey 
and elias lindholm's ninth goal of the season is amazing. but vegas didnt give up they kept fighting with jack eichel and tomas hertl scoring in the third period. its so hard to watch when teams are that close it keeps you on the edge of your seat all game long. i'm loving the boston bruins winning streak tho, 9 wins in a row is crazy! 
It was such an exciting game to watch, and I'm loving every minute of this NHL season so far...
... McAvoy's 4th goal was just 10 seconds into a 4-min power play? that's like, not even effort 
the Bruins are getting lucky with their goalie and it's only a matter of time before they get hurt 
. And Korpisalo, man, what a goalie performance - 29 saves and all 
that was such a close game 
i feel like my heart is still racing thinking about it 
can you even imagine how intense it must've been for those players out there on the ice? 
As a parent, it's amazing to see my kiddos getting into sports and cheering on their favorite teams like the Bruins! The way Charlie McAvoy scored that fourth goal was insane
