Bruins edge Wild in shootout

ST. PAUL, Minn. — David Krejci scored the shootout winner and rookie goalie Tuukka Rask stopped 28 shots to help the Boston Bruins win their fourth straight game, 2-1 over the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday night.

The Bruins closed out a perfect four-game trip by beating the Wild for just the second time in team history despite managing a season-low 16 shots.

The main reason was Rask.

The rookie made his fifth straight start for Boston as regular goalie Tim Thomas remains out with an undisclosed injury. Rask also stopped five shots in overtime, including a point-blank chance from Mikko Koivu, and three of four shootout chances to improve to 7-2-1 this season.
