3. Danton Heinen secures the win

After a strong rookie season, Danton Heinen took a bit of a step back. Bruins fans will be happy to see that he is playing much better.

Heinen got to play on the power play and he made it count. He scored his first goal of the season on a rifle of a shot past Ben Bishop.  He put everything behind the shot and Bishop had no chance.

The Bruins 3rd line will be special in my opinion. A combination of Heinen, Lindholm, and Karson Kuhlman could score a lot of goals. Then when Charlie Coyle gets dropped down to the 3rd line once David Krejci returns they will be even better.

So the Boston Bruins are undefeated for now. They started their season off on the right foot with a win and look like they haven’t lost a step since last season.

Next. Time for Torey Krug to show worth. dark

Next up for the Boston Bruins is the Arizona Coyotes on Saturday night.
