BOSTON — After a wild, offense-happy start to the season, the new Bruins are starting to look a little more like the old Bruins. And that’s a good thing.
The B’s got goals from David Pastrnak and Taylor Hall and, after withstanding some pressure in the third period, Patrice Bergeron’s empty-netter snuffed out any hope the Dallas Stars had of tying the game and the B’s grinded out a 3-1 victory over the Stars at the Garden.
The Bruins took a 2-1 lead into the third period, but the Stars controlled the play in the early goin until Trent Frederic took a delay penalty at 7:04 but the B’s came up with a strong penalty kill, giving the Stars very little.
