It didn't take long for the Boston Bruins to get on the board in their season opener against the Dallas Stars.
Just over a minute into the game, the Bruins were able to net their first goal of the season against Ben Bishop. The scorer? Free-agent acquisition Brett Ritchie.
Here's a look at the goal courtesy of the Bruins official Twitter account.
This was a sweet goal for Ritchie. He came to the Bruins after spending the first five years of his career with the Stars, but wasn't give much of a chance to be a scorer. He had only 6 points in 53 games last season.
Ritchie's revenge goal was just the start for the Bruins. On their first power play of the season, Danton Heinen netted a goal to give the Bruins an early 2-0 lead.
