3. Playoff David Krejci

It is easy to overlook David Krejci. The Bruins have so many talented goal scorers on their roster that you can forget how great Krejci is.

The Bruins 2nd line was impressive. Jake DeBrusk was buzzing all over the ice and it seemed like the line was just waiting to break out.

On Monday night, David Krejci was able to get on the scoreboard and notch his 4th goal of the playoffs.

Krejci unleashed an amazing slap shot. I’m surprised it didn’t go through the net.

This was when you had a feeling that the Bruins had some good mojo on their side. The Blue Jackets had plenty of opportunities but Boston got on the board first.

If David Krejci and the 2nd line can continue to perform well the Boston Bruins will be a tough team to beat. Boston finally have the scoring depth that the team desperately needed.
