UNDATED (AP) — The Boston Bruins’ three-game swing through New York hasn’t been very productive.
The Bruins have followed Thursday’s 7-2 loss to the Islanders by getting blasted by the Rangers, 6-2.
Ryan Strome had a goal and an assist for the Blueshirts, who had fans in the stands for the first time since last March. Chris Kreider added a goal and an assist as the Rangers won for the third time in four games.
Patrice Bergeron got the Bruins within 2-1 early in the second, but the Rangers regained control when Colin Blackwell and Kreider scored 12 seconds apart late in the period.
Brad Marchand netted his 300th NHL goal for Boston.
