Wolf Pack 1, P-Bruins 0

PROVIDENCE — Al Montoya made 36 saves for his fifth shutout of the season and Alex Bouret scored his 13th goal to lift the Hartford Wolf Pack to a 1-0 victory over the Providence Bruins in American Hockey League action Sunday at the Dunkin' Donuts Center.

Montoya made 18 saves in the first period which ended in a scoreless tie.

Bouret scored the game’s sole goal when he finished off a 3-on-2 rush with Nigel Dawes and Brandon Dubinsky in the second period to stuff a rebound past goalie Hannu Toivonen (25 saves) at 11:57.

The Bruins (39-29-1-3), who lost their third game in a row, were 0-for-3 on the power play and have scored only two goals in their last 46 times with a man advantage.
Montoya began the game ranked fifth with a 2.25 goals-against average and improved his season record against Providence to 4-1.

The Wolf Pack (41-26-3-0) have now beaten the Bruins for the fourth consecutive game.

Hartford also has increased its lead over Providence to three points in the race for second place in the Atlantic Division.
