Viktor Arvidsson appears to be back to his old self, and is playing more like the "weasel" since his return from injury.
Jonathan Quick and recent call-up Spencer Martin were both overmatched by Boston for the Rangers, who haven’t won a game without Shesterkin on the ice since Nov. 7. J.T. Miller shouldered some of the blame for letting Saturday’s game get out of hand, saying the goal shouldn’t be to “try to point fingers and make excuses.”
The Bruins look more like a non-playoff team with each game. If this continues, who could be available? Breaking down the roster.
The Boston Bruins are keeping one of their defensemen around, as they have signed blueliner Jonathan Aspirot to a two-year contract extension with an average annual value of $887,500.
Two teams coming off differing results on Saturday get set for a Sunday evening matchup, as the Pittsburgh Penguins pay a visit to the Boston Bruins. The Penguins and the Bruins could not have had more varying results than they did just over 24 hours ago.
Khusnutdinov has a total of 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) through 40 games this year. The contributions from those outside of the B’s veteran goal scorers have been key to the team’s success. The Bruins rank eighth in the league for goals scored per game during a season in which many did not expect that production.
Carrick landed a pair of right hands early, but Kastelic rallied with a few of his own late and ended up on top. The Bruins forward delivered one more shot while Carrick was down and earned a 10-minute misconduct in addition to the 5 minutes each got for fighting.
