Matty Ice Scores Two-Goal Night
Charlestown’s Matt Grzelcyk got exorcised the Devils on Tuesday night with his first two-goal game of his career in New Jersey. The third-year player scored in the first and third periods, and seems to be on a top-level trajectory this year. His teammates gave him the puck for the effort, and he has reportedly worked a lot on his shot this year. That is evident as he helped the hot Bruins escape a mini-slump.
