Seth Griffith scores first NHL goal, Bruins beat Sharks 5-3

GRIFFITH!

Winslow Townson-USA TODAY Sports

What a game. The Bruins have beaten the Sharks twice in a row on TD Garden ice, and in both cases David Krejci had the last goal of the game. Admittedly, last time it was a bit more dramatic, but still. Tuukka Rask made 31 saves and Antti Niemi made 29, and the Bruins won 5-3 - a score that included two Bruins PPGs, one shorthanded ENG, and a Joe Thornton goal. (boooo.)

Here's your fancy stats chart. The corsis were pretty equal tonight, all things considered, although the Bruins really picked things up in P2.

Gif Highlights of tonight's game:

Brad Marchand scored a PPG for the Bruins' first of five:

Torey Krug added another PPG, and it was a beauty:

In the meantime, the Sharks scored three, including this Joe Thornton wrister. Booo.
