FIRST STAR – BRAD MARCHAND, LW, BOSTON BRUINS
Marchand shared first in the NHL with four goals and added a pair of assists to lead the Bruins (6-3-1, 13 points) to a trio of wins, extending the club's point streak to seven contests (6-0-1). He posted 1-1—2 in a 6-0 victory over the Arizona Coyotes Oct. 27, the team's first home win of the season. Marchand then scored twice, including the game-winning goal, in a 3-1 triumph over the Florida Panthers Oct. 30. He capped the week with 1-1—2, including the primary assist on Brett Connolly's tiebreaking goal, in a 3-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning Oct. 31.
