(Sports Network) - The Boston Bruins hope to build on a blowout victory, as they welcome the Vancouver Canucks tonight to TD Banknorth Garden.
The Bruins were on the road Tuesday evening in Ottawa and posted a 7-2 decision over the Senators. Marco Sturm recorded his second career hat trick to lead Boston to the easy win over its division rival.
Marc Savard scored twice and Glen Murray added his 17th goal of the season for Boston, which is now 4-4 in its last eight games. Tim Thomas made 35 saves for the Bruins.
Patrice Bergeron tallied a career-high five assists and extended his point streak to six games.
The Bruins, who are 9-7-1 as the home team this season, will wrap up a brief two-game stand Saturday against Montreal.
Vancouver, meanwhile, is in the midst of a four-game road trip. The Canucks opened the swing on a sour note, as they dropped a match in Minnesota on Tuesday. Branko Radivojevic's pair of goals helped the Wild post the 5-2 victory.
