The Bruins are off to a 5-1 start after David Pastrnak scores a career-high four goals in a 4-2 victory.

Colorado breaks a tie with 7:06 left in the third period, then tacks on an empty-net goal for the 4-2 win.

Brad Marchand had two goals and an assist to lead Boston Bruins over the Vegas Golden Knights.

Boston scores twice in the first six minutes and hold off Dallas in the third.

Acquired last season at the trade deadline, Charlie Coyle had 16 points in 24 playoff games for Boston and offers a lot of versatility.

In Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Charlie Coyle and Sean Kuraly, Boston has a solid group of centers on all four lines.

Settling on a second-line right wing is one of the few question marks for last season’s Stanley Cup finalists.

The 20-year-old Keyser has been impressive so far during Boston’s preseason.

Boston returns with essentially the same roster that made it to Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals last year.

The young forward played better than expected last season, and might be slotted in alongside David Krejci and Jake DeBrusk.
