"Jeannot, who entered the game with 53 goals and 435 penalty minutes in his career, and Anderson (154 and 582) fought for about a minute while teammates on both benches banged their sticks against the boards in approval. The Bruins forward landed several blows before his Canadiens counterpart went to the ice, drawing a big roar and a chant of "U-S-A!" from the TD Garden crowd."
"Midway through the first period of the contest that Montreal won, 6-2, it happened again, with Boston's Nikita Zadorov and Montreal's Arber Xhekaj dropping their gloves off a faceoff in the Bruins' end. In all, there were nine penalties for 30 minutes in the first, with Boston taking a 2-1 lead on a power-play goal with 18 seconds left in the period."
"In the end, Boston left with more worries than a few fights. Montreal scored four unanswered goals in the third period, and ran away with an easy victory. Zack Bolduc, Cole Caufield, Nick Suzuki and Juraj Slafkovsky authored those goals, two of which came on the power play. The Bruins have now lost four in a row, and five of six. In their past two defeats, they have allowed 12 goals."
