A quick 1 day trip to The Hub.
Martin Necas didn’t make the trip so it’s another night of 11F/7D. Expect Mrazek in goal.
The Bruins come in with the best record in the league, with 43 points in 27 games. They have a 12 point lead over Florida in the Atlantic, have a 7 game winning streak and are 8-0-2 in their last 10. Their last regulation loss was on October 8, in Detroit of all places. They haven’t lost in regulation at home, compiling a 11-0-4 record. They’ve scored the 2nd most goals in the league and given up the 2nd fewest. Marchand is in the top 5 in goals, assists and points and leads the league at +19, David Pastrnak leads the league with 25 goals. David Krejci is 3rd in plus/minus at +17, Chara is right behind him at +16. Rask is 2nd in GAA at 2.04 and tied for 2nd at save % at .933. Their PP is 2nd at 31.6%, the PK is 7th at 84.5%, 1 spot ahead of the Canes. They do have an Achilles heel; they’re 0-4 in the shootout.
