Bruins Victorious in Season Opener

5-2 Win Over Capitals

Marchand's Power-Play Goal Seals Victory

The Boston Bruins kicked off their 2022-23 regular season with a hard-fought 5-2 victory against the Washington Capitals. Despite missing key players due to injuries, the Bruins showed their depth and determination to secure the win.

David Pastrnak led the scoring for Boston with a goal and three assists, while Brad Marchand and Jake DeBrusk both contributed a goal and an assist each. Newcomer Hampus Lindholm made a significant impact on the ice, scoring a goal and blocking a crucial shot at the other end.

The game-winning goal came from Marchand on the power play, tipping in a pass from David Krejci. The power play, which had struggled in the preseason, came through in the clutch when the Bruins needed it most.

Tuukka Rask, filling in for injured starter Linus Ullmark, made 28 saves for the Bruins, including several key stops in the final minutes to preserve the victory.

The win is a positive start to the season for the Bruins, who hope to build on their success and contend for a Stanley Cup title.
