BRIGHTON, Mass. — Fabian Lysell did not score his first career NHL point as he dreamed. In the second period of the Boston Bruins’ 7-2 win over the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday, Lysell handed the puck to Casey Mittelstadt in the offensive zone. Mittelstadt flung a long-distance shot that bounced off Seamus Casey’s stick and past Jacob Markstrom.

Pastrnak made it 3-0 at 10:14 of the second period. He pounced on a loose puck in front, kicked it onto his stick, spun and snapped a low shot from a sharp angle to the left of the net, beating Andersen to the short side.

The Boston Bruins have shut down defenseman Charlie McAvoy and center Mark Kastelic for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign, interim head coach Joe Sacco confirmed Thursday per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.

The Stanley Cup playoffs are well out of reach for both the host Boston Bruins and the Chicago Blackhawks entering their Thursday night clash.

This may be far from a dream season for the Boston Bruins. But as the team wrestles with major player turnover and the end of an era, the tumult has allowed some young players to see the realization of their own personal dreams.

The Bruins last missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs in 2016. Boston made the second round on five of their eight straight playoff runs. One of these runs — 2019 — saw the Bruins make the Stanley Cup Final. However, they lost in Game 7 to the red-hot St. Louis Blues.

Alex Ovechkin scored his 891st career goal on Tuesday night to lead the Washington Capitals to a 4-3 victory over the Boston Bruins.

Even after Ovechkin broke Gretzky's all-time goals record, some of "The Great Ones" records will never be topped
