Three massive takeaways from the Boston Bruins extremely dominate win against the Seattle Kraken after honouring Jack Edwards.
The Boston Bruins honoured Jack Edwards before their game against the Seattle Kraken, and they did not let fans down. The Bruins continued their momentum following their shutout win against the Philadelphia Flyers.
In their first back-to-back of the season, the Bruins played some of their best hockey shutting out both the Flyers and Kraken. The Bruins beat the Flyers 3-0, and today they beat the Kraken 2-0 to improve to 6-6-1 now.
Three boxes were checked off for the Boston Bruins that head coach Montgomery has been wanting to see out of the Bruins since the beginning of the season.
Started on time - check.
Execution - check.
Effort - check.
The Bruins did not waste anytime after honouring Jack Edwards, as Justin Brazeau tipped a shot from Nikita Zadorov in just 3:23 into the first period to give the Bruins an early 1-0 lead they have not seen much of.
Just six minutes later the Boston Bruins were given a chance on the power play, and did not miss it as Charlie Coyle scored a beauty of a goal for his second of the season.
The Bruins were dominate all game long and held the Kraken to just three shots in the first period, and 10 throughout two periods, where the Bruins had 30 at the end of 40 minutes.
The Bruins almost had a 3-0 lead in the first period after Pavel Zacha ended up scoring, but Seattle challenged the play for offside. The referees deemed that the play was offside as Zacha entered the zone before the puck did and the goal got overturned.
Here is the official explanation per the NHL:
Video review determined that Boston's Pavel Zacha preceded the puck into the offensive zone and was in an off-side position prior to his goal. According to Rule 38.9, «The standard for overturning the call in the event of a «GOAL» call on the ice is that the NHL Situation Room, after reviewing any and all available replays and consulting with the On-Ice Official(s), determines that one or more Players on the attacking team preceded the puck into the attacking zone prior to the goal being scored and that, as a result, the play should have been stopped for an «Off-Side» infraction; where this standard is met, the goal will be disallowed.»
The Bruins are now on their second win streak of the year, and will look to make it three games in a row for the first time this year when they take on the Toronto Maple Leafs in an Original Six matchup on Tuesday night.
