TORONTO, ON - It's not every day that a team walks into TD Garden then walks out with a win and two points.
But that was the case after Saturday's Oilers-Bruins match where the Orange & Blue handed the Black & Gold a 4-1 blow.
As a result, Edmonton joined just the Colorado Avalanche as the only two teams in the National Hockey League to beat Boston on home ice in regulation in 2019-20.
A victory like that can bring a team together and instill confidence - if that was lacking previously.
"For us to beat them in regulation, especially after we've been on a little bit of a slide, it should be a confidence boost for us," Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said Sunday from Ford Performance Centre in Etobicoke.
"It shows what we can do when we put a full 60 together."
