After losing two in a row last weekend, the Providence Bruins got back on track by winning all three of their games this week.

They returned from a trip to Pennsylvania with a 5-3 win over the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on Wednesday. Back at home, they dug deep to rally from two goals down in the third period and beat the Bridgeport Islanders in a shootout, 4-3, on Saturday and posted a 3-2 victory against the Islanders again on Sunday.

Here’s the good, bad and ugly.

GOOD

— Providence is 41-10-1 and is first in the Atlantic Division and the Eastern Conference with 83 points and a .798 points percentage. They are five points ahead of second-place Wilkes-Barre/Scranton with three games in hand.

— Matej Blumel, Riley Tufte and Patrick Brown combined for one of the more flashy goals of the season against Lehigh Valley. In the offensive zone, Blumel tossed the puck to Tufte, who batted it out of the air to Brown, who bunted it into the net for Providence’s fourth goal of the game. The goal made ESPN’s SportsCenter Top 10. On the ensuing faceoff at center ice, a Phantoms player turned to a Bruin and said, “So you guys are the Globetrotters now?”

— Brown scored twice against the Phantoms. His plus-34 continues to lead the league.

— Billy Sweezey’s plus-28 is second in the AHL. He threw a number of punishing hits on Saturday night.

— Ty Gallagher had a strong week. In addition to defending well, he posted an assist on Wednesday, a goal and an assist on Saturday and two assists on Sunday. He’s making good strides in his first full year as a pro.

— Georgii Merkulov set up Providence’s first goal on Wednesday, then scored its second, too.

— Blumel had a goal and two assists against Lehigh Valley. He also scored goals on Saturday and Sunday. He has 4-7-11 in his last eight games.

— A pretty pass by Frederic Brunet set up Joey Abate’s goal on Wednesday.

— Riley Tufte’s shootout goal clinched Saturday’s victory. His plus-26 is tied for fourth in the AHL.

— Michael DiPietro stopped all three Bridgeport shooters in Saturday’s shootout win. On Sunday he kicked out 37 of 39 shots. He’s tied for the AHL lead with 24 wins. His .937 save percentage and 1.78 goals-against average are No. 1 in the league.

— Riley Duran scored a highlight reel shorthanded goal in Sunday’s win.

— With Providence protecting a one-goal lead late on Sunday, John Farinacci and Brett Harrison came through with key shot blocks.

— The P-Bruins are 10-0 against Bridgeport.

— Sweezey, Mike Callahan, Jake Schmaltz and John Farinacci were standouts in killing a penalty in overtime on Saturday.

BAD

— Providence allowed two goals in 1:29 in the third period against the Phantoms as their 4-1 lead was cut to 4-3.

— Two words to describe the interference penalty that referee Damian Figueira whistled on Patrick Brown in OT on Saturday: Holy crap.

— The P-Bruins were outshot 12-1 in the first 15 minutes of Sunday’s game.

— Providence’s home power play is 25^th in the league at 14.9 percent. Strangely, on the road, the PP is a league-best 28.2 percent.

UGLY

— Injured: Simon Zajicek, Dans Locmelis

— The bus arrived back from Lehigh Valley at 3:45 a.m. on Thursday.
