The Bruins may not be a great hockey team. We still don’t know if they’re even very good at all. But they can be a fun, if unconventional, watch right now.

The B’s, outshot 40-23 and held in the game by Joonas Korpisalo, coughed up a two-goal third period lead but pulled it out in overtime, beating the Buffalo Sabres 4-3 on Marat Khusnutdinov’s OT goal, his first tally of the season.

After Josh Doan cut a 3-1 Bruin lead in half with a goal earlier in the period, the Sabres tied it with a controversial goal with 5:35 left in the third. Off a faceoff, Alex Tuch beat Korpisalo with a wrist shot from the slot.
