Against the Leafs, Lohrei led all Bruins defensemen in ice time (22:05) and recorded two assists, one of which was a highlight-reel outlet pass to David Pastrnak for a breakaway goal.

Lohrei himself expressed a commitment to consistent improvement, aiming to be a player who contributes offensively while maintaining strong defensive play.
