Game Story: We are on a roll picking games to cover! The Tampa Bay Lightning and the Boston Bruins played an exciting, but very painful game. I’m hoping that we get to watch a seven-game series of this! – https://bit.ly/3HD4b0V
Boston Bruins (38-5-4) HC: Jim Montgomery, Top Performers: David Pastrnak, (37-32-69 +28); Brad Marchand, (15-30-45 +20); David Krejci, (12-27-39 +17); Patrice Bergeron, (18-20-38 +22); Pavel Zacha, (8-23-31 +15); Hampus Lindholm, (6-25-31 +34); Taylor Hall, (14-17-31) Machine-Like 10 of last 11. Only loss was the home streak against Seattle. 22-1-3 at TD and 16-4-1 road. Best splits on both in the NHL.
Stat of the day. The Bruins became the fastest team in league history to reach 80 points needing just 47 games to get to that marker. The other two teams tied for the previous record of 49 games, the 1943-44 Canadiens and 1979-80 Philadelphia Flyers.
Tampa Bay Lightning (27-13-1) HC: Jon Cooper, Top Performers: Nikita Kucherov, (19-49-68); Steven Stamkos, (24-31-55); Brayden Point, (27-22-49); Brandon Hagel, (18-22-40 +13); Alex Killorn, (14-20-34 +11); Mikhail Sergachev, (6-27-33) Won 6 of 10. Looking like same-old TB. Lost 2 of 3 in Alberta road trip. Outscored 11-6 in losses to EDM and CAL.
BOS Injuries: Jake Debrusk, (Foot/Leg Week-to-Week); Tomas Nosek, (Foot, Week-to-Week)
TB Scratches: Haydn Fleury, Cal Foote,
Goaltending: Linus Ullmark, (25-2-1, 1.82 GAA, .938 SV, 2 SO) vs. Andrei Vasilevskiy, (21-12-1, 2.54 GAA, .917 SV)
