Final Score: Boston 5 - Philadelphia 1

Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Tuukka Rask stopped 31-of-32 shots to lead Boston over Philadelphia, 5-1, at Wachovia Center.

Patrice Bergeron added a goal and two assists for the Bruins, who snapped a two-game slide. Marco Sturm, Blake Wheeler and David Krejci each posted a goal and one helper.

"We try to create a lot of energy and bring a lot of emotions to our game," said Boston captain Zdeno Chara. "Making simple plays but important plays to establish a forecheck and put pressure on them."

Jeff Carter recorded the lone goal for the Flyers, whose two-game win streak came to an end.

"We've been not playing the greatest (lately), and I think we've been getting away with it on the power play and scoring timely goals," said Flyers captain Mike Richards. "But tonight we got what we deserved."

Starter Michael Leighton was tagged for four goals on 25 shots in 31-plus minutes. Brian Boucher finished the game with 11 stops.

Wheeler put the Bruins on top with a backhander from a 3-on-1 rush at 13:15, and Rask stopped Arron Asham in front and later Simon Gagne on a breakaway to keep the one-goal margin.

Carter evened the score on the power play less than a minute into the second, but Mark Recchi roofed a shot from a sharp angle to give the Bruins a 2-1 edge at 4:37

Bergeron was quick to a loose puck and stashed it over a fallen Leighton at 10:30 for a 3-1 Boston edge and Krejci was alone in front to convert another rebound at 11:16 to signal Leighton's exit at 4-1.

Sturm finished off a quick pass from Bergeron for a 5-1 game with 7:25 left in regulation.
