Leading 5-4 after the second period the Bruins scored four goals to open the third to turn a tight game into a blowout. On two occasions, the Bruins scored twice in less than a minute and almost did it a third time. Trailing 2-1, Jake DeBrusk and Heinen scored 55 seconds apart to end the first. Tied 3-3, Heinen and Charlie Coyle scored 49 seconds apart in the middle of the second.

Here are four takeaways from Bruins’ fourth straight victory:

Dainton Heinen blows up—Heinen had scored five goals so far this season and had not scored in the previous eight games. It had been nearly two years since he had scored two in a game. He hadn’t done that since the Penguins’ victory over the Bruins on February 8, 2022, when he scored two goals.

Jim Montgomery put him on the ice for a late power play after he had scored two goals early, and his teammates searched for him until he scored his third.

Jake DeBrusk continues to roll — DeBrusk has been prone to hot and cold stretches throughout his NHL career. He scored a goal and delivered a pretty pass to set up Pavel Zacha’s goal to continue his positive surge. He had two goals and two assists in his last two games.

Linus Ullmark struggles in his first game back — In his first game back in the lineup since suffering a lower-body injury, Ullmark gave up four goals in the first 14 shots he faced and wasn’t as sharp as his usual standard, but it didn’t matter as the Bruins offense more than picked up for him. He finished with 17 saves.
