But just how good has Lindholm been to start this season?
Through the first 15 games this season, the 28-year-old has 4 goals and 10 assists to sit tied for sixth in defenseman scoring in the NHL. He's also a plus-15 rating with an average of 24:28 time on ice.
One statistic stands out with Lindholm's short tenure in Boston, however(not counting Saturday night):
- Through 28 games as a member of the Bruins, Lindholm has never had a game with a minus rating yet.
Here are a couple more impressive stats:
- During the regular season, Boston has an overall record of 24-4-0 with the Swede defender in the lineup
- At five-on-five, the team has outscored opponents by a score of 27-11 when Lindholm is on the ice, regular season and playoffs.
