This Stat Shows Just How Dominant Bruins Have Been To Begin This Season

There’s no denying the Boston Bruins are the team to beat in the NHL.

Boston boasts an 18-3-5 record after winning 3-2 in overtime against the New York Rangers on Friday, good for the top spot in the Atlantic Division as well as the entire league.

David Pastrnak continues to put himself in with elite company and is on a torrid pace through the first two months of the season, while Tuukka Rask’s 12 goalie wins are good for the second-most in the NHL. But it’s not just the individual stats that are raising eyebrows.

According to NHL Public Relations, the B’s joined the 1974-75 Buffalo Sabres and 2000-01 St. Louis Blues as the only teams to record two 10-game point streaks.

Boston has not lost a game in regulation on home ice, and will look to continue that trend Sunday when it comes the Montreal Canadiens to TD Garden.
