David Pastrnak recorded the NHL's third four-goal performance of the season: Anthony Mantha (Oct. 6) and James Neal (Oct. 8).

Two of Pastrnak's four goals (Boston's first and last) were scored on the power-play, his first such ones of the season. The 23-year-old scored a goal apiece in the first two periods before notching two in the final one, the third one being of the unassisted variety.

​Torey Krug and Brad Marchand notched two assists each, while Patrice Bergeron recorded one of his own.

Nothing like a great start to the season as the Bruins are showing no signs of a Stanley Cup hangover. Their offense is starting to click, and the goaltending has been great. Exactly what you want if you're a fan.

Boston will look to win their third straight game on Thursday night at home against the Lightning.
