PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jarome Iginla and Zdeno Chara each had two goals, Tuukka Rask made 25 saves and the Boston Bruins beat the Philadelphia Flyers 6-1 Saturday.

Reilly Smith and Patrice Bergeron
also had goals for the Bruins. The defending Eastern Conference
champions are 3-0-1 since losing five of eight, and trail only
Pittsburgh in the conference.

Claude Giroux
scored a power-play goal for the slumping Flyers, who've lost four in a
row. They're 2-5-2 in their last nine games, tumbling from second place
in the division to eighth in the East. It's their worst stretch since a
1-7 start that got coach Peter Laviolette fired three games into the
season.

Steve Mason allowed
four goals on 19 shots and was yanked for the second time in three
starts since signing a contract extension last Saturday.
