Boston Bruins forward Nick Foligno is off to a scorching start in the 2022-23 NHL season.
Through the first six games, the soon-to-be 35-year-old has already found the back of the net three times, surpassing the lone two goals he scored during 64 games in his first season with the Bruins. Including a powerplay marker yesterday against his brother Marcus and the Minnesota Wild.
Before this season, Foligno was adamant that he was going to prove people wrong this season, and so far, he's living up to his words.
''Last year obviously was different, but this year it's trying to contribute on the scoresheet, but also just the way I play, how I'm trying to help drive the bottom six here and make sure we have an identity each and every night. That's the reason why we're having success as a team, is everyone's contributing.''
Although his role on the team is still a fourth-line winger, the veteran has already exceeded expectations in the early going of the season. Watch Foligno's postgame media coverage below:
