Atlanta (AP) - Patrice Bergeron scored the only goal of the shootout and the Boston Bruins snapped Atlanta's four-game winning streak, beating the Thrashers 4-3 on Thursday night.
Boston halted a three-game slide, which included two overtime defeats. The Thrashers at least picked up a point when Maxim Afinogenov scored with 41.4 seconds remaining in regulation to send the game to overtime.
Tuukka Rask stopped all three Atlanta skaters in the shootout, turning aside shots by Rich Peverley, Slava Kozlov and Ilya Kovalchuk. Bergeron scored on Boston's opening attempt, faking Ondrej Pavelec completely out of position and stuffing the puck into an open net.
