The Bruins still need a bit more out of the second line on their West Coast road trip, despite what the analytics might say.
The Boston Bruins had finally found something with their top six when they combined the trio of Pavel Zacha, Casey Mittelstadt, and Viktor Arvidsson. There were plenty of questions about the line, but Mittelstadt was looking comfortable, and Arvidsson was playing some of his best hockey of the past few years. However, both players suffered some unfortunate injuries that have put the team in flux at the worst time.
