The Bruins snapped their three-game dropping streak with a win over the Golden Knights, and head coach Jim Montgomery highlighted one ahead who had an enormous sport.
Boston beat Vegas, 5-4, in an exhilarating contest that ended with Mason Lorehi scoring the go-ahead aim with lower than 5 minutes left within the matchup at TD Backyard.
Jakub Lauko helped put the Bruins forward within the first interval with a flashy help on a Jesper Boqvist aim. Lauko was inserted into the lineup after Anthony Richard was assigned to Windfall, and “Grapes” made positive to reward the teaching workers’s perception in him.
“Actually proud of Lauko (Thursday) night time,” Jim Montgomery advised reporters, per Bruins video. “I assumed it was most likely his greatest all-around sport of the yr and plenty of what we noticed from him sport in and sport out final yr. Hopefully, that offers him the boldness to be like, ‘I’m again, and I’m going to claim myself,’ as a result of his grit, his sandpaper mixed along with his velocity and his ability is one thing that’s a lot wanted on the fourth line.”

The help was Lauko’s sixth of the season and his two targets put him at eight factors on the season.
