The historic start to the 2022-23 campaign continues.
The second half of a back-to-back without Brad Marchand (staying home following his stellar season debut on Thursday) and David Krejci (day-to-day, upper body) didn’t stop the Boston Bruins from continuing their winning ways Friday night in Columbus.
Jim Montgomery’s squad completed their October slate with an 8-1 mark following their 4-0 rout of the Blue Jackets.
Without Marchand and Krejci, the Bruins’ scoring depth continued to shine in Friday’s win.
Matt Grzelcyk kicked things off with his slick top-corner wrister to give the Bruins a 1-0 first-period lead.
