Brad Marchand Scores Fantastic Individual Goal For Bruins Vs. Sabres (Video)

Brad Marchand has scored more goals than any Boston Bruins player this season, and his 23rd might have been his best yet.

With the Bruins trailing the Buffalo Sabres by a goal early in the third period Thursday night, Marchand collected the puck following a defensive-zone faceoff win by Patrice Bergeron and did the rest himself.

The B’s winger spent the next 12 seconds weaving around and through a string of Sabres defenders before capping his end-to-end rush by slipping the puck past former Bruins goaltender Chad Johnson in Boston’s 3-2 shootout win.

The goal was Marchand’s eighth in as many games, and it brought him to within five of his single-season career high of 28. He’s on pace to score 39 goals this season, which would be the most by a Bruins player since Glen Murray netted 44 in 2002-03.
