Korpisalo made 20 saves, Bruins shutout Flyers

Brad Marchand had a goal and an assist for Boston (5-6-1), and Matthew Poitras and Justin Brazeau scored. It was the first win for the Bruins in three games (1-2-0).

Aleksei Kolosov made 20 saves for Philadelphia (4-7-1) after replacing Samuel Ersson at 7:36 of the first period. Ersson left the match with a lower-body injury after stopping all eight shots he faced.

Poitras put the Bruins up 1-0 at 13:28 of the first period. Hampus Lindholm’s point shot bounced off the back wall to Poitras, who slid a shot from an acute angle between Kolosov’s skates.

Brazeau made it 2-0 at the 11:23 mark of the second period when he skated through the slot and deflected a one-time pass from Marchand past Kolosov.

Marchand capped the scoring at 16:21 of the third period with an empty-net goal for the 3-0 final.
