The Boston Bruins’ offensive firepower from the first week of the 2022-23 campaign has fizzled a tad over the last week. But defensively, they’ve made some strides over the previous three games, including in Tuesday’s tilt with the Dallas Stars.
Jim Montgomery’s squad allowed some quality scoring chances off the rush and in front of the net against Tyler Seguin and company. For the most part, they limited the Stars in their secondary opportunities off tips and rebounds, allowing Linus Ullmark to track pucks through traffic en route to a 30-save outing.
Boston’s lone breakdown came on Wyatt Johnston’s early second-period equalizer.
