Marco Sturm left the Boston Bruins bench Wednesday night with his first-ever win as an NHL head coach and a new souvenir to commemorate the moment.

The Bruins' opening day performance against the Capitals brought forth a proud confession from Jeremy Swayman.

Throughout training camp, the Bruins promised to be more competitive and tougher to play against as they began the Marco Sturm era.

With head coaches in the first year at the helm of their respective teams, the Boston Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks figure to be building their games during the early stages of the season.

David Pastrnak had a goal and two assists and Jeremy Swayman made 35 saves to lift the Boston Bruins to a 3-1 win over Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals.

Twenty-one-year-old Fraser Minten didn’t just make the Bruins out of training camp. He’s earned the trust of Marco Sturm to the point that Boston has been able to retool their middle-six.
