One of many most interesting first profession targets in historical past, little doubt.
However Buffalo nonetheless misplaced the match. The membership misplaced to the Capitals in time beyond regulation.

It was Dylan Strome who sealed the sport’s consequence.

3. Jonathan Fast dominates the Penguins (with out glove)

Pittsburgh officers confirmed no mercy for Jonathan Fast’s left hand final evening.

The Rangers goalie misplaced his glove and even tried to play with out it.

The Blue Jackets ought to by no means have let him go…

4. The Bruins are in a category of their very own

Earlier than final season, in my predictions, I didn’t even have the Bruins within the prime eight groups within the East. I used to be improper.

In my pre-season predictions for 2023-2024, I didn’t even have the Bruins among the many prime eight groups within the East. Up to now, I’m improper.

Boston is on fireplace and is the most effective workforce on the Bettman circuit, even with out Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci. Yesterday, in a hotly contested sport, the Bruins beat the Panthers 3-1.
In consequence, the workforce has a report of 14-1-3 in 2023-2024.

Absurd, to say the least.

Of their final 100 regular-season video games, Jim Montgomery’s workforce has misplaced solely 13 occasions in regulation time.
