The Boston Bruins returned home from their three-game road trip through Colorado, Arizona and Vegas. And Jim Montgomery’s bunch didn’t fall victim to many of the blues usually reserved for a team’s first home game from a lengthy swing out west.
Tuesday’s 4-3 shootout win wasn’t perfect. The Bruins arrived a little late to their first tilt of the season against the New York Islanders until Jake DeBrusk scored a pair a mere 19 seconds apart. They encountered some hiccups with turnovers and defensive zone coverage, and their transition game wasn’t as sharp compared to some of their earlier matchups.
