Canadiens 3, Bruins 1

Boston

Brian Savage, Patrick Roy and the rest of the Montreal team stayed hot Tuesday night as Savage scored his ninth goal in six games - all victories - and Roy stopped 38 shots to beat Boston.

The Canadiens opened the season with a five-game losing streak that cost coach Jacques Demers and general manager Serge Savard their jobs. But since then, they have not lost.
