The Boston Bruins have now completed a near-perfect NHL season after setting a new all-time points record with a 5-2 win over the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night.
The Bruins wrapped up Easter Sunday by setting a new record for most wins ever in an NHL regular season (63) and extended their tally to 64 with a game to spare after beating the Capitals in their final home game of the regular campaign. The win took their points tally to 133, surpassing the long-lasting record of 132.
The record has been held by the Montreal Canadiens since the 1976/77 season, but the Bruins continued their dominance by smashing yet another historic total. They've broken multiple records this season, and will be hoping to complete the ultimate campaign with a Stanley Cup victory.
