Boston Bruins
Last time out, Boston hosted the Ottawa Senators and earned a 3-1 victory. The teams exchanged goals in the first period, but the Bruins scored in each of the second and third periods to earn the win.
David Pastrnak, two goals, was joined on the scoresheet by Jake DeBrusk. Charlie McAvoy had three assists and was joined in the assist column by Brad Marchand and David Krejci.
David Pastrnak is doing what he does best as Pasta leads the Bruins with 41 goals, 36 assists, and 77 points this season. Boston is scoring 3.71 goals per game and allow just 2.05.
Seattle Kraken
Seattle visited the San Jose Sharks and were disappointing in a 4-0 defeat. There was no scoring in the first period, but the Sharks took control after that. San Jose scored three goals in the third and finished the game off with a late third period goal.
Seattle had 26 shots on goal, compared to the Sharks 24, and went 0-2 on the powerplay. A poor performance by the Kraken.
Seattle has been balanced on offense as Jared McCann has a team high 26 goals and Jordan Eberle leads the way with 32 assists and 45 points. The Kraken are scoring 3.46 goals per game and allow 3.07.
