Patrice Bergeron gets 1,000th point with assist in Bruins' win
BruinsTAMPA, Fla. -- Patrice Bergeron got his 1,000th career point with a second-period assist and the Boston Bruins beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-3 on Monday night for their seventh straight win.
Bergeron became the fourth Boston player and 94th in NHL history to reach the milestone with the second assist on Brad Marchand's goal at 15:08 that gave the Bruins a 4-1 lead.
Marchand immediately pointed at Bergeron after scoring his goal and the Boston bench emptied to celebrate with the 37-year-old center along the boards.
"That was probably the most special thing about it,'' Bergeron said. "All the guys kind of jump on and share that with them. It's great. That's something I will remember for a long time.''
The other Boston players to reach 1,000 points are Ray Bourque (1,506), Johnny Bucyk (1,339) and Phil Esposito (1,012), who was at the game as a Lightning radio broadcaster. Bergeron is the 41st player to have 1,000 points with one franchise.
"The players love him," Boston coach Jim Montgomery said. "I joked around the other day, I'm like, if he had any kind of cheat in his game he might have 1,200 points already, or 1,300. He's just so dedicated to playing the game the right way and helping the team have success."
Montgomery compared Bergeron, a five-time Selke Trophy winner as the league's top defensive forward, to Montreal great Bob Gainey.
"I think historically Bob Gainey's been the best defensive player in the game,'' Montgomery said. "I had the fortune of watching him in his hey-day with Montreal. What Patrice has done as a center, there is so much more responsibility, he might go ahead of Bob as the greatest of all-time.''
David Krejci, Nick Foligno, Charlie Coyle and David Pastrnak also scored for the Bruins, who improved to 17-2. Linus Ullmark made 32 saves.
Boston needs two wins to match the 1929-30 Bruins squad that started the season a franchise-best 19-2.

Nick Paul scored twice and Rudolfs Balcers had the other Lightning goal. Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 25 shots.
"That's why they're an elite team in the league, when they waned they kept it together and stuck with it,'' Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper. "When it didn't go our way, we didn't handle it that well. Two good teams. It was a good game for the most part, but they deserved more than we did.''
Tampa Bay had won four in a row.
Foligno and Coyle scored 31 seconds apart in the second to put Boston up 3-1.
Foligno, who took a shot off the chin during the morning skate, had a rebound power-play goal at 5:07.
Coyle was credited with his in-close goal after a video review. It was originally called no-goal when the referees ruled the net had come loose before the puck cleared the goal line.
Pastrnak, on the power play, and Balcers traded goals 11 seconds apart early in the third before Paul's man-advantage goal made it 5-3 at 10:38.
Pastrnak has 13 goals in 15 games against Vasilevskiy, and extended his point streak to seven games (4 goals, 10 points).
Paul and Krejci had first-period goals. Krejci has four goals during a three-game goal streak.
Tampa Bay outshot 9-0 over the first eight minutes of the game.
Devils top Oilers for 13th straight win, tying franchise record
NEWARK, N.J. -- As the New Jersey Devils celebrated their franchise record-tying 13th consecutive victory Monday night, a sold-out home crowd rose to its feet to commemorate the moment.
"I think the team deserves a standing ovation. A run like this is incredible," Devils coach Lindy Ruff said following his team's 5-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers.
The Devils previously won 13 straight games from Feb. 16 to March 23, 2001, a team that would go on to play for the Stanley Cup. Their current streak started Oct. 25 and has fueled New Jersey's stunning surge to the top of the Metropolitan Division (16-3-0) after finishing 28th in the NHL last season.
"We're up there [in] the history book. Nobody's gonna take that from us now," said captain Nico Hischier, who had three assists in the win. "It proves that we're a good team. That we can win hockey games. That we don't have to hide anymore."
The Devils can set a franchise record for consecutive wins when they meet the Toronto Maple Leafs at home Wednesday night. The all-time NHL record for most consecutive victories is 17 straight, set by the 1992-93 Pittsburgh Penguins -- a streak that ended with a tie against the Devils in the last game of the regular season.
Monday marked the second time New Jersey has defeated Edmonton during this current win streak; the Devils rallied to beat the Oilers 4-3 in Edmonton on Nov. 3.
New Jersey jumped out to a lead Monday night on winger Jesper Bratt's first-period power-play goal, his eighth of the season. Edmonton answered with its own power-play tally from star Leon Draisaitl (11th). But the Devils built a lead they wouldn't surrender during the second period on goals by center Dawson Mercer -- scored thanks to a miscue by Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner -- and defenseman Damon Severson, set up by pinpoint passes from Bratt and center Jack Hughes (two assists).
Edmonton pulled within one goal thanks to a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins tally at 4:52 of the third period, but the Devils answered back just under 2:15 later as Tomas Tatar gloved his own rebound and then smacked the puck past Skinner. Yegor Sharangovich closed out the scoring after an Oilers turnover at 14:45 of the third.
Goalie Vitek Vanecek, who has appeared in 10 of New Jersey's 13 straight victories, made 27 saves to clinch the win. Vanecek was acquired from the Washington Capitals in the offseason.
"It's great to be here. When you're winning it's more fun," he said. "If you are losing, it's not fun, you know? So we are winning right now, and it's really fun."

Ruff praised the effort of Vanecek and his entire team but cautioned that any celebration comes with a sense of the long road ahead for the Devils.
"I feel like we haven't proven anything yet. I think we've done a lot of good things. We've played good hockey. But we're 19 games in," he said. "We've had a great run, but we know we're the hunted now. We can expect the best that every team can bring because we're getting recognition. That part we're going to have to deal with."
For now, the Devils are enjoying a hot streak that's matched any in the history of the franchise.
"It's definitely one of the most fun stretches I've ever been part of," Hischier said. "I don't want it to end. It's definitely just fun. Like we say, just keep riding away the wave."
