Slow start, but Bruins get a much-needed win over the Islanders
Boston Bruins right wing David Pastrnak (88) celebrates his goal against the New York Islanders with center Elias Lindholm (28) and the team during the second period at TD Garden on Oct. 28, 2025.Less than 24 hours after his team was run off the ice in Ottawa, a clean slate was the last thing Marco Sturm wanted to harp on Tuesday.
“I think we all should feel embarrassed by what happened yesterday,” Sturm said before facing the Islanders. “I’m not going to sit here and just move on through the next one. I’m a competitor; my guys in my room are very competitive. We all take a lot of pride in games like that. We just want to be better and show a response today.”
