Jeremy Swayman made 21 saves for Boston (28-26-8), which won 3-2 at the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday but has lost six of the past seven (1-4-2). David Pastrnak ’s 17-game point streak ended (33 points; 15 goals, 18 assists).

The Wild picked up a much-needed 1-0 win over the Boston Bruins Sunday afternoon during a brief return to Minnesota before hitting the road yet again Monday for a two-game road trip to Seattle and Vancouver.

Minnesota was the last team the Bruins beat before that five-game skid, a run which further dimmed Boston’s playoff hopes.
