The Bruins’ youth movement has continued to pay dividends on the ice.
A little over two weeks after 19-year-old center Matthew Poitras buried his first two NHL goals in the same game, two more Bruins rookies recorded their first career tallies in the same period on Monday night against Dallas.
Boston built itself a 2-0 lead in the opening 20 minutes thanks to a pair of milestone goals from Johnny Beecher and Mason Lohrei, with both skaters lighting the lamp less than four minutes apart at American Airlines Center.
Beecher, playing in his 12th NHL contest on Monday, opened the scoring for Boston at 10:21 in the opening frame.
