The B’s are now on a three-game win streak, tied for their longest win streak this season.
They may not have been pretty tallies, but the Bruins’ bottom-six forwards persisted and carried the play to the net to account for three goals - one of which earned Oskar Steen his first NHL goal.
In particular, the Bruins’ fourth line generated three goals, including Curtis Lazar’s opener and Tomas Nosek’s assist on Brandon Carlo’s closer. The fourth line combined for seven shots on net.
