Patrice Bergeron scored to bag his third goal in two days while Brad Marchand got his fifth goal in just eight games this season. Also getting their names on the scoresheet were Connor Clifton, Pavel Zacha, and Tomas Nosek, who scored in an empty net with just 1:58 left on the clock.

Boston’s previous record for consecutive home wins was set in the 1983-84 season when the Bruins won eight consecutive games at the old Boston Garden arena.

“I think everyone’s contributing and playing for the team. I think that’s the biggest thing right now,” Burgeon said of his team’s strong start to the season. Currently, the Bruins sit on a four-game winning streak and have an overall record of 14-2-0.

Currently top of the Eastern Conference Atlantic Division, the Boston Bruins have a packed schedule ahead. The team next faces the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night before hitting the road to play the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night.

The top four teams in each conference resumed the 2019/20 season following coronavirus pandemic break with a round-robin tournament that helped the NHL determine the seeding for the postseason. This was made in order to give these teams “meaningful games” ahead of the playoffs.

Bruins entered the tournament with a lot of rust and lost the first two games including the matchup against Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday. This made it mathematically impossible for Boston to claim either of the top two seeding spots.

“That part sucks. I’m not going to lie to you,” said Bruins’ head coach Bruce Cassidy. “But that’s the situation this year with the stoppage in play. We knew the rules coming into it that we would lose a bit of the advantage we gained.”

Boston Bruins will have their last round-robin game against Washington Capitals on Sunday. The outcome of that game will most likely determine whether Bruins enter the postseason as No.3 or No.4 seed.

The No.1 seed will now be determined between Lightning, Capitals, and Philadelphia Flyers. Tampa Bay has the best chances of securing the top spot, having a perfect record since the restart.
