Get a recap of the Boston Bruins vs. Buffalo Sabres hockey game.

[Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen](http://www.espn.com/nhl/player/_/id/4233889/ukko-pekka-luukkonen) stopped 19 shots in dropping to 0-3-2 in his past five, a stretch in which he’s allowed 21 goals. [David Pastrnak](http://www.espn.com/nhl/player/_/id/3114778/david-pastrnak) matched a career-high by scoring his team-leading 48th goal. And to head back home after a long trip and to play like that and get the result is huge for us,” McAvoy said. The Bruins won their 26th road game to match a franchise record set in 1971-72. “So you fall behind, you start chasing the game against a team that’s feeling their swagger like they are, and it’s a little more challenging.” [Patrice Bergeron](http://www.espn.com/nhl/player/_/id/2280/patrice-bergeron) set the tone by scoring 15 seconds into the game. The Bruins have now outscored the Sabres by a combined 14-1 in their past two outings following a 7-1 win at Boston on March 2. Buffalo squandered yet another opportunity to gain ground after opening the day sitting 11th, and six points behind the eighth-place And Swayman made 26 saves to post his second straight shutout, which he celebrated by taking a bite out of a chicken wing offered to him by fellow goalie [Linus Ullmark](http://www.espn.com/nhl/player/_/id/3069285/linus-ullmark). He now has four shutouts on the season, all coming in the span of 13 starts dating to a 6-0 win over Philadelphia on Jan. Swayman, who was coming off a 36-save outing in a 3-0 win at Winnipeg on Thursday, blanked the NHL’s third-best offense. “So the last couple of games have been a really big positive for our team.”
