OTTAWA (AP)—Tuukka Rask (notes) made 33 saves for his second shutout, Nathan Horton (notes) scored early in the third, and the Boston Bruins won their season-high sixth straight, all on the road, with a 1-0 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday night.

Rask stopped 10 shots in the first period, 14 in the second and nine in the third for his eighth career shutout, his first since a 41-save effort in a 4-0 win over Florida on Nov. 18.

Horton scored his 18th goal 1:43 into the third when he put a loose puck into a gaping net off a goalmouth scramble.

Boston's 6-0 trip matched the team's longest perfect trip since 1971-72, when the eventual Stanley Cup champions won six straight from Feb. 17-26.

Craig Anderson (notes) made 20 saves in his fifth straight start for Ottawa.
