Take a bow, Brad Marchand.
The Boston Bruins winger was named the NHL’s First Star of the Week after a three-goal, four-assist week. Marchand also boasted a league-best plus-six rating. This is the second time he has won the award.
His linemate, David Pastrnak, also has been a recipient of First Star of the Week.
