The Boston Bruins lost 3-2 at the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday but they're 4-2-0 in their past six. A lot of their success can be credited to the hot hands of forward David Pastrnak, who has scored a goal in five straight games and is tied for second in the NHL with nine. He's been a perfect fit on a line with center Patrice Bergeron and left wing Brad Marchand. "I think his youthfulness and his energy and all that has made those other two guys good as well," coach Claude Julien said. "We know they're good players but he's been a good fit on that line." The Bruins won their most recent home game, 4-0 against the Buffalo Sabres on Monday, but they're 2-3-0 at TD Center and would like a win before heading on a three-game road trip. "I think defending home ice, you've got a few advantages with the last change and some home cooking and some familiar surroundings," forward David Backes said. "You want to be able to take advantage of those things."
