OCTOBER 12TH, 2022 - Washington, DC

The Boston Bruins opening their regular season with a hard fought 2-1 victory over the Washington Capitals. The Caps were lead by TJ Oshie who opened the scoring on the powerplay after a scoreless 1st period. The Bruins came out hitting on the 1st shift of the game as BBA33 told his coach to start the 4th line and set the tone! They did just that, Nick Foligno started the hitting with a jarring hit on Nick Backstrom in center ice and the hitting didn't stop there. Both teams ramped up the physicality with Alex Ovechkin leading the Caps with 5 hits.

Taylor Hall jumped on a loose puck in the slot and buried the shot early in the 3rd to tie the game at 1-1. It was all Boston from that point as they outshot the Caps 14-3 in the period but only managed to squeek one past Darcy Kuemper.

Overtime started out slow but 2:00 minutes in Ovie had a clean break away from the red line in on a bad change. Jeremy Swayman(1-0) made the stop and on the very next rush Pasta found himself all alone in front of Kuemper and beat him 7-Hole to win the game!
