It isn't surprising that Marchand was Boston's first goal scorer of the season. Marchand led the team in goals this past season with 29 in 53 games. He ended the year with 40 assists and 69 points, so it was a fantastic season all around for him. Now, he's off to another good start for the team.

Marchand also scored an empty net goal for the Bruins to cement their 3-1 victory over the Stars. It appears that he is destined to have another great season for Boston.
