Swedes Viktor Arvidsson and Elias Lindholm impressed in Boston's NHL victory over St. Louis. One of them was involved in all of Boston's goals, in the game that ended 5–2.

Lindholm started the game with an early point, when he played teammate Alex Steves forward just over six minutes into the first period. The Swedish Boston center had a total of three assists.

Viktor Arvidsson managed to get the puck in the net during the close second period, making it 3-1. St. Louis goalie Jordan Binnington had just saved a loose shot on goal when Arvidsson seized the opportunity.

"I saw some going towards the net, so I thought I'd try and shoot. It hit pretty clean, so it was fun to see it go in," he said, according to nhl.com.

With the goal, Arvidsson secured his 400th point in his NHL career.

He didn't stop there, however, and got another point during the game, when he played teammate Pavel Zacha in. It was Arvidsson's 200th assist in the NHL.

Zacha also scored Boston's final goal, which came just one second before the end of the second period. It was played in by Lindholm.
