MONTREAL -- The Boston Bruins just couldnt bury their chances. On a night when Boston was looking close out the series, the Bruins made a hash of numerous opportunities in a 4-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens in Game 6 on Monday night. The Bruins hit posts and crossbars, missed open nets, blew odd-man rushes and couldnt capitalize on key chances throughout the game. Most noteworthy was a frenetic 5:11 sequence of uninterrupted play in the second period during which the Bruins penned Montreal in its own zone for more than two minutes. With the Bruins down 1-0 early in the second period, and their power play expiring, Boston took advantage of tired Habs legs to play keepaway with Montreal in the offensive zone. The Bruins peppered the net with shots, but couldnt take advantage of the unrelenting pressure. "We were all around the net, getting a lot of chances. And then they scored that second one," said Bruins forward Patrice Bergeron. "It definitely took the momentum out of us. Its about finishing the job, and we have to be a lot better." On the sequence, Carl Soderberg took two shots on Carey Price, and had another two blocked by Canadiens defenceman Mike Weaver. Brad Marchand missed the net, Jarome Iginla was stopped by Price and Kevan Miller had a chance blocked by P.K. Subban. The Bruins took a total four shots on net, had three shots blocked and missed the net once. "If we capitalize on a chance there, its a different game," said Milan Lucic, who was also denied by Price on the sequence. "Were not frustrated with what happened here today because we established some pretty good zone time." Price made 26 saves for his fourth career post-season shutout. One of his best of the evening was on Lucic during Bostons dominant spell. Lucic was fed the puck across the crease, but Price made it back in time to rob the left-winger. "Bouncing puck, I overshot it," said Lucic. "It was one of those plays that you put in nine out of 10 times. Today was that one that you didnt get. You get the same opportunity next game, you have to make sure that you bury it." Minutes later, Max Pacioretty scored his second of the playoffs on a breakaway to double the Canadiens lead. Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask left his net to intercept a stretch pass by Nathan Beaulieu on the play, but changed his mind and retreated back between the posts. The moment of uncertainty was enough for Pacioretty to fire home a shot between Rasks pads. "I kind of hesitated," said Rask, who let in four goals on 28 shots. "I didnt want to get burned. Me and Zdeno (Chara) got caught looking at each other. I thought he was going to dive, and he thought I was going to play it. Just another gift." Thomas Vanek, whos particularly successful against the Bruins with 67 points in 61 career games, added a goal at the end of the second period and another at the end of the third. The Bruins have now failed to clinch a playoff series in Game 6 on the road for the fourth time in five seasons. Game 7 goes Wednesday night in Boston. "Its one game, winner moves on," said Lucic. "You know its not going to be easy. You fought all season-long to get the home ice advantage for situations like this. "Were confident. Weve been a confident group all year long. Weve played well in big games. This is the biggest one so far throughout the year. We have to bring our best when we need it the most. Thats the most important thing."

While the pair of Spain internationals return, midfielder Xavi Hernandez will not be included in the squad after failing to recover from a muscle strain to his left leg.CHICAGO -- Jose Quintana was happy to get a win. The left-hander, who leads the American League with 17 no-decisions this season, pitched into the eighth inning and rookie Marcus Semien hit his first homer to lead the Chicago White Sox to a 3-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday night. Quintana (9-6) allowed two runs on five hits in 7 1-3 innings. Addison Reed pitched the ninth inning to record his 39th save of the season. "Of course; Im very happy with the win," Quintana said through an interpreter. "Im going to continue to work and develop and, hopefully, put my team in a position to win." With an earned run average of 3.45 and close to 200 innings pitched, Quintana certainly has put his team in position to win most nights. "Hes kind of your classic lefty," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. "He mixes speeds, moves it in and around. Hes got a quick arm, ball gets on you. Its more explosive than the radar gun will show you. Hes got a feel. You can tell he just knows what hes doing out there." The way White Sox manager Robin Ventura sees it, the no-decisions have nothing to do with the way Quintana has pitched. "Hes pitched well," Ventura said. "Wins have been hard to come by, so its nice that he got the win so he can feel good about it." Run support has been the major problem this season, but Semien went a long way into seeing that wouldnt be a problem Monday with a two-run shot in the second inning. "Any time you have any kind of first in the big leagues, its a great feeling," Semien said. The infielder, recalled on Sept. 4, has been playing mostly third base since joining the team. Hes hitting .306 and making all the plays in the field and making a strong push to be considered for a spot on the rister next season. "I think Marcus is making a case for himself," Ventura said. "He has a lot of tools that hes using. Were getting to see what he can do." Semien well knows what potentially is on the line with his play this month, but says hes not about to put that kind of pressurre on himself.dddddddddddd "I feel good about the way Ive been playing," he said. "I try not to worry about making a case or anything like that. I try to focus on helping the team win. Im glad we got the win tonight." Toronto starter J.A. Happ (4-7) threw 110 pitches in his five innings, allowing three runs and eight hits. Semiens homer in the second inning opened the scoring. With Dayan Viciedo on first, Semien hit an 0-2 pitch from Happ down the line and well over the fence for a 2-0 lead. The Blue Jays cut the lead in half as catcher J.P. Arencibia led off the fifth inning with his 21st homer, but the White Sox got the run back in the bottom of the inning when Avisail Garcia led off with a solo shot to make it 3-1. The Blue Jays closed the gap to 3-2 on a run-scoring single by Ryan Goins in the eighth inning, but that was as close as they got. NOTES: Adam Dunn was not in the starting lineup for the third straight game on Monday. White Sox manager Robin Ventura said his playing time has been limited lately in part to get some younger guys in the lineup. Although Dunn is hitting .218 this season, he is batting .130 in September with 27 strikeouts in 17 games. "Some people have to sit and watch, but I understand and its good to kind of evaluate the kids, too," Dunn said. ... This game was a makeup of a rain out on June 12. The White Sox flew in from Detroit on their way to Cleveland, while the Blue Jays flew in from Boston on their way to Baltimore. "You can use a day off when what happened back in June happened, but you know theres a price to pay later," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. ... Venturas original three-year contract expires after next season, but he said he isnt interested in discussing a contract extension right now. "It has to be on both sides," he said, "but thats a discussion for another day." ... The White Sox will send Hector Santiago (4-9) against Ubaldo Jimenez (12-9) in Cleveland on Tuesday, while the Blue Jays will send Todd Redmond (4-2) against Baltimores Chris Tillman (16-7). ' ' '
