The Boston Bruins have struggled this season to score at 5-on-5. Besides their first line of Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron, and David Pastrnak, they just haven’t seen much 5-on-5 offense.
In fact, the Black and Gold have struggled to score in general. They have just 77 goals for this season, which is 25th in the league. Of these 77 goals, 36 have come from Boston’s top line. That’s almost 47% of the team’s goals!
