Burins remain hot with road win over Isles

Hockey Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Uniondale, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tim Thomas stopped 37 shots as Boston clipped the New York Islanders, 3-2, at Nassau Coliseum.

Milan Lucic, David Krejci and Marc Savard tallied for the Bruins, who have won five of six.

Josh Bailey and Matt Moulson scored for the Islanders, who have dropped two in a row and three of four.

Dwayne Roloson suffered the loss despite a 31-save performance.

Down by two goals, the Islanders received a prime chance to get back in the contest, when Isles forward Blake Comeau was hit from behind into the boards by Bruins forward Michael Ryder with 3:54 to play in the second. While Comeau was escorted from the ice on a stretcher, Ryder was given a major and game misconduct.

New York failed to convert on a significant portion of the advantage until intermission, then did not close its deficit on the remainder at the start of the third.

Moulson finally got the Isles within a goal at the 5:43 mark, but the home team could not solve Thomas from there, including a stretch in the final 1:18 with an extra skater.

Lucic notched the lone goal of the first period, on a quick high wrister from the slot with 1:34 to play.

Bailey evened the score on a power play 2:18 into the second, but Krejci finished off a slick pass from Miroslav Satan at 5:04.

Boston went up 3-1 on the power play when Patrice Bergeron's rising point shot went sailing over the net, but caromed right to Savard's feet for an easy backhand tap-in at 9:20 of the second stanza.

Game Notes

The clubs split four meetings this season, with each team winning once at home and on the road...Boston heads to Pittsburgh on Sunday and New York waits until Tuesday to play in Philadelphia.
