Consider Tomas Hertl’s game-winning goal. Pavel Zacha, one of the Bruins’ regular penalty killers, was off for slashing. Hertl found a soft spot in the bumper between the four PKers. Hertl had time to collect Jack Eichel’s pass and load up his between-the-dots before Charlie Coyle arrived.

The Bruins hope to keep their own point streak going while keeping the Devils on the skids on Wednesday. Jeremy Swayman gets the start.

Swayman saved 34 of the 38 shots he faced in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights. Swayman allowed one goal in the first two periods before Vegas got the best of Boston's goaltender, grabbing two goals in the third to seal the win.

Swayman on Saturday made his 40th appearance of the season — the third time the 26-year-old has reached that plateau.
