With Tuesday’s win over Dallas, the Boston Bruins tied the NHL record for the fewest games needed to reach 40 victories in a season, matching the 2015-16 Washington Capitals
The current iteration of the Boston Bruins – the 2022-23 edition that’s separated itself from the pack in an NHL where parity reigns – is right up there.
Numbers like that mean the Eastern Conference powerhouse is flirting with history on an even bigger scale. “Depth at every position,” Crosby continued of the Bruins. “Different guys stepping up, and their core and leadership that they have, goes a long way.”“Veteran guys that know how to do it it’s just that simple,” said Carolina Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind’Amour, whose team split two recent playoff series with the Bruins. “Everybody else is just, ‘OK this is how we do things.’ It’s no secret to me why they’re having success.
“They take advantage of every single chance,” he said. “They want to play a 1-0 game. If you break down for five they’re going to score.While the Bruins sit second in the NHL with an average of 3.66 goals scored per game, the 2.11 they surrender – Boston’s 112 allowed were 27 fewer than the second-place New Jersey Devils and New York Rangers heading into Wednesday – is what truly stands out at a time when no NHL lead appears safe and skill in attack has never been greater.
