Boston Bruins

The Boston Bruins won what, at times, felt like a Stanley Cup Playoff game that had little margin for error and beat the Dallas Stars 3-1 on Tuesday night. The Taylor Hall-David Krejci-David Pastrnak line was a major factor again.

Boston Bruins defenseman Brandon Carlo returned to the lineup Tuesday after missing the last four games with his sixth concussion since the last game of the 2017 regular season.

Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery is ‘dying’ to pick the brain of future NFL hall of famer and New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick soon.
