BOSTON (AP) – The Boston Bruins staged an impressive comeback but came away with just one point for their effort.

The Chicago Blackhawks coughed up a 3-0 lead in the third period before Jonathan Toews scored 54 seconds into overtime to give the Hawks a 4-3 win at Boston.

Ryan Carpenter and Dylan Strome scored 37 seconds apart at the end of the first period, and Alex DeBrincat tallied off the opening faceoff of the third period to make it 3-0.

But the Bruins countered with goals by Joakim Nordstrom, Chris Wagner, and Torey Krug before ending their eight-game winning streak.

The Bruins are 12-0-5 at home and owners of the NHL’s second-best point total, one behind Washington.

Robin Lehner made 37 saves for the Blackhawks, who had lost six of their previous seven games.
