    The Boston Bruins had one goal taken away by an inadvertent whistle, and the Capitals were about to go on the power play.

    Boston's four first-period goals had chased Washington starter Braden Holtby, but no one on the Bruins bench was all that confident Monday night with almost 35 minutes left in the game against a team that had beaten them in 16 of the previous 17 tries.

    That's when Brad Marchand forced a turnover at center ice and tipped the puck ahead to Charlie Coyle, who skated in for a short-handed goal to give Boston a 5-0 lead. The Bruins went on to a 7-3 victory that snapped a five-game home losing streak.
