October 22 - For the Boston Bruins, embarking on a four-game road trip so early in the NHL season has its benefits. Captain Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak each had three-point games, giving each points in every game this season. Additionally, Morgan Geekie netted his first goal with the Bruins, and Derek Forbort dished out two assists. The Ducks have played short-handed 22 times while being awarded only 12 power plays on the season. "Fatigue will set in and then guys are sitting on the bench, the rhythm of the game gets pickled," Cronin said.
