Takeaways: Bruins regroup to down Red Wings
The Boston Bruins entered the Christmas break losers of four straight. After Sunday’s showing against the Detroit Red Wings, they’ll enter 2024 with a three-game win streak.
Their last game of 2023 featured heated tensions, scrappy post-whistle scrums, timely goals and multiple head-scratching calls from the officials. Yet, the Bruins, playing their second game of a back-to-back, persevered through a chippy contest.
An aggressive Trent Frederic set the tone with Boston’s first two tallies, beginning with a brilliant backhanded feed off David Pastrnak’s lengthy flip pass from the opposing blue-line late in the opening frame.
