Marchand’s OT winner evens Bruins-Capitals series at 1-1

<p>WASHINGTON &mdash; Brad Marchand scored 39 seconds into overtime after teammate Taylor Hall tied the game late in regulation, and the Boston Bruins rallied to beat the Washington Capitals 4-3 Monday night, tying the East Division first-round playoff series at a game apiece.</p>
<p>Game 3 is Wednesday night in Boston.</p>
<p>The Bruins were less than three minutes away from pure desperation mode in the series.</p>
<p>Two penalties early in the third period took Boston out of rhythm as Garnet Hathaway scored his second of the game to give Washington the lead with 12:56 left. Anderson — who made 38 consecutive saves after allowing two goals on the first five Bruins shots — was a rock until Hall whacked a loose puck past him with 2:49 left in regulation. </p>
<p>Boston got first-period goals from Jake DeBrusk and Patrice Bergeron, and 36 saves from Tuukka Rask, who was beaten twice by deflections. Hathaway scored twice and T.J. Oshie redirected a shot in for Washington.</p>
<p>Anderson finished with 44 saves.</p>
