Bruins win fifth straight game against Kings with discipline focus

The Boston Bruins claimed their fifth consecutive victory on Saturday night, defeating the Los Angeles Kings 4-1. David Pastrnak tied the game in the second period and Marat Khusnutdinov scored the go-ahead goal late in the third. Coach Marco Sturm made a notable decision to scratch defenseman Nikita Zadorov for disciplinary reasons, even as the team continued to excel without him. Boston has now improved to 7-2-0, with contributions from various players, including younger ones, helping maintain their winning streak. The Bruins conclude their road trip against the Dallas Stars on Tuesday.
