Life is Riley; Nash playing role of unlikely savior

BROOKLYN, N.Y. — Entering Saturday’s game with the Islanders, the Bruins really needed a victory and for some important players to come through. The usual suspects, Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand, Zdeno Chara, David Pastrnak and David Krejci all needed to provide a spark and lead by example.

Not to go unnoticed are Dominic Moore and Riley Nash, who have been a consistent presence on the fourth line and playing a 200-foot game with each and every shift. The latter arguably became the Bruins savior at the Barclays Center on Saturday.

Nash’s pair of goals were the only ones the Bruins needed.
