NHL Game Summary - Pittsburgh at Boston

Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - David Krejci and Zdeno Chara scored goals 1:16 apart late in regulation to send the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 decision over the Pittsburgh Penguins in a contentious contest from TD Garden.

Reilly Smith also lit the lamp for the Bruins, who bounced back from a one- goal loss in Montreal on Thursday and have won seven of their last 10 overall.

Tuukka Rask made 28 saves as the hosts kept pace with the first-place Habs in the Atlantic Division.

Chris Kunitz and James Neal tallied for the Penguins, who saw their season- best five-game win streak halted thanks to some inattentive defense late.

Defenseman Brooks Orpik left the game on a stretcher in the first period and did not return.

Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 18 shots in defeat.
