Last night, the Boston Bruins faced the Utah Hockey Club in Salt Lake City, the team of the hour in the NHL. This game was eagerly anticipated, as Utah has shown some impressive performances in recent weeks. The Bruins knew they had to perform at their best to compete against a team on the rise.
In the third period, the Bruins captain committed a turnover in the offensive zone, which gave the locals the opportunity to seize the puck and launch a counter-attack. This mistake was costly as Kailer Yamamoto beat Jeremy Swayman and found the back of the net.
Back on the bench, Boston head coach Jim Montgomery yelled at Marchand. Although we don’t exactly understand his words, it’s clear that he is angry with his player.

The goal was ultimately disallowed after Montgomery called for a review for offside.
UTH won this game in overtime by a score of 2 to 1. With this victory, the team now has a record of 4-1-1, which places it in second position in the Central division. This strong start to the season is far from representing the team it was in Arizona. The players seem to have found a new rhythm and identity, which is promising for the future.
