CHICAGO -- Morgan Geekie and Brad Marchand each scored two goals for the Boston Bruins in a 4-2 victory against the Chicago Blackhawks at United Center on Wednesday.

The Boston Bruins prevailed 3-2 in a heated divisional matchup against the Detroit Red Wings. Following the victory in overtime, Boston defenseman Nikita Zadorov called out Detroit forward Lucas Raymond after tensions flared between the two players during the game.

Following the game, Zadorov called out Red Wings forward Lucas Raymond for embellishment, which led to the big Bruins defenseman to receive a two-minute minor for slashing. Zadorov also cross-checked Raymond after the whistle.

Lucas Raymond scored twice for Detroit and surpassed 200 career points. Simon Edvinsson had a pair of assists and Husso stopped 32 shots as the Red Wings lost their third straight. The Red Wings lost a possible go-ahead goal to a review in the second period before regaining the lead in the third when Raymond fired a wrist shot past Korpisalo 1:19 in.
