Linus Ullmark made 31 saves and Connor Clifton also scored as the Bruins improved to 8-0-0 at TD Garden. David Pastrnak added an empty-net goal for Boston, which is 12-2-0 overall. Noah Hanifin scored for the Flames, who dropped their seventh straight. McAvoy’s goal came at 18:27 of the second period.
