During the Boston Bruins and Dallas Stars game, Jamie Benn hit Brandon Carlo hard. Bruins defenseman Nikita Zadorov quickly stepped in, challenging Benn to a fight. Zadorov dominated the fight, landing several strong punches before taking Benn down.

The Bruins signed Zadorov in the offseason to bring toughness to the team. Talking about the hit, he said:

"Well, my teammates laying on the ground. Think that's a good response."

After the 7-2 loss, Nikita Zadorov expressed frustration with the team’s performance. Although the Bruins had some good moments recently, like their comeback against the St. Louis Blues, their effort in this game was lacking.
