COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Brad Marchand made sure the loss of star center Patrice Bergeron to an injury this week wasnt as painful as it could have been for the Boston Bruins.Brad Marchand had two goals and three assists to match his career high with five points and the Bruins overcame a 2-0 first-period deficit to beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 6-3 on Thursday night in the opener for both teams.David Pastrnak had two goals and two assists, David Backes also scored twice and had an assist, and Tuukka Rask made 28 saves.I think the big thing about tonight we have to take away is the character we showed, Marchand said. Its a lot of fun when you come back from 2-0 deficit and win.Backes, shifting to the first-line center position to cover for Bergeron, scored both of his goals in a 3:36 span of in the second period to tie it at 3.Bergeron is day-to-day with a lower-body injury. He didnt make the trip to Columbus.Backes steal in the third period led to a breakaway and Marchands put-back goal , and Marchands shot by goalie Sergei Bobrovsky made it 5-3 with 4:20 left. Pastrnak tapped in an empty-net goal in the last minute to complete the scoring.I felt our team played well even in the first period, and it was just a matter of getting ourselves back in the game and cleaning up some of those little issues that we had, and we did that, Boston coach Claude Julien said. I think we showed some resiliency, I think we showed some character and it was nice to see some guys step up here and find a way to win a hockey game.Rask didnt allow another puck past him after Seth Jones goal from the slot 6:44 into the second period.Alexander Wennberg and Cam Atkinson also scored for Columbus.The Jackets scored with their first shot on goal 2:58 into the game by Wennberg . Atkinson made it 2-0 with a power-play goal with 2:52 left in the first period.We had a great start, and I think we just got uncomfortable, Blue Jackets captain Nick Foligno said. They picked up their level of play, and we just kind of started to play into their hands. We didnt elevate our game.Columbus is trying to avoid last seasons disastrous start in which it lost the first eight games. Coach Todd Richards lost his job after the first seven games, and John Tortorella was brought in but couldnt right the ship. After the first period Thursday, it looked as if last years Blue Jackets were back.Tentative, sloppy, you can use a lot of different words, Tortorella said. I dont have an answer for you. Obviously we have to find it.Game notesTwelve players of the 23 on the Blue Jackets roster are age 23 or younger. Rookie defenseman Zach Werenski is just 19.
