Bruins Week Ahead: March 16-22

STAT OF THE WEEK: Brad Marchand (17) and Patrice Bergeron (9) have 26 shorthanded goals since the 2013-14 season, which is the most by any two teammates in the NHL in that span and is more than the Philadelphia Flyers (25), Washington Capitals (25) and St. Louis Blues (24) have during that same period.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: ""Very excited. It's something that I've waited for for a while. It's always nice having some local guys that get it. It's always tough coming to a new team, a new locker room. When you know a few guys, it certainly makes it easier to adjust and get to know everyone else."- Weymouth native Paul Carey on playing in his first-career Bruins game with fellow Massachusetts natives Charlie Coyle and Chris Wagner from playing in the offseason.
TWEET OF THE WEEK (WEEK 28): @ConorRyan_93 (Conor Ryan, Boston Sports Journal): "David Krejci is on pace for his first 70-point season since ...
