David Pastrnak's hat trick fueled the Boston Bruins to a 5-2 victory over the formidable Colorado Avalanche. Bruins coach Jim Montgomery expressed optimism about the team's trajectory, citing the last three games as their best this season. With a third consecutive win and an 8-1-3 record in the last 12 games, the Bruins are showcasing their prowess. Jeremy Swayman's stellar goaltending, making his fourth consecutive start, contributed to the success.
Now boasting a 27-8-9 record, the Bruins lead the NHL Eastern Conference by five points. Their recent domination against the Devils, with goals from Charlie Coyle, Pastrnak, and Trent Frederic, showcased their command on the ice. As they gear up for an 'Original Six' showdown against Montreal, the Bruins aim to maintain their impressive standing in the Eastern Conference. With a season still ahead, the Bruins have the potential to secure a commanding position if they sustain their current level of performance.
