NHL roundup: Korpisalo records eighth career shutout as Bruins blank Penguins 1-0

Jan 11, 2026 | 10:35 PM

BOSTON (AP) — Joonas Korpisalo made 27 saves for his first shutout of the season and the eighth of his career, Viktor Arvidsson scored and the Boston Bruins beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 1-0 on Sunday.

The Bruins won for the fifth time in six games despite going 0-for-6 on the power play a day after whipping the Rangers 10-2. It was Boston’s first shutout this season.

Coming off a loss at home against Calgary on Saturday that halted their season-high six-game winning streak, the Penguins were shut out for the fourth time this season. Stuart Skinner stopped 17 shots.

Unlike Boston’s game a day before, this one was limited in high-quality scoring chances and didn’t have any strange moments like when the Bruins were awarded a reviewed goal when most of the opponents were in their locker room at the end of the opening period.

Arvidsson’s goal came 11 minutes into the first when he had two shots at a rebound, outworking defenceman Erik Karlsson before lifting a backhander past Skinner from the edge of the crease.

The Penguins made a surge late in the second, with Korpisalo’s best save coming as he quickly slid across the crease to make a glove stop on Sidney Crosby’s backhander from the right circle.
