Coach Julien calls a time out and pulls goaltender Tim Thomas with just under 2 mins left in regulation and Mark Recci playing in his 1500th career NHL game, pops one in at the 18:32 mark of the third. Just over a minute later, Krejic finally scores his first of the season as he tips in the game tying goal. After a scoreless overtime frame, Bergeron scores the only goal in the shootout.

Tim Thomas was nothing short of spectacular tonight, coming up huge with a highlight reel save in the third and shut down Kovalev, Alfredsson and Spezza in the shootout to solidify what looked to be a loss that turned into a win for the Bruins. Three games in four nights and the B’s come out of it with 5 out of a possible 6 points. Not bad for a team that is missing the entire number one line from a year ago. The Bruins get a much deserved rest as their next game is not until Thursday night.
