Zucker cut Buffalo’s deficit to 2-1when he scored at 9:46 of the third period. His shot from the left face-off circle redirected off Boston defenseman Andrew Peeke’s stick and past Swayman.
Kuraly scored an empty-net goal at 19:57 for the 3-1 final.
“Overall, that’s Bruins hockey,” coach Marco Sturm said. “With the crowd behind us, that was a fun game.”
NOTES: The Bruins recorded a season-opening winning streak of three or more games for the fourth time over the last seven campaigns, winning six straight to start the 2023-24 season and three straight in both 2022-23 and 2019-20. … Boston is a perfect 12-for-12 on the penalty kill through three games after killing off all four against the Sabres.
