The Boston Bruins aren’t doing themselves any favors with their recent play. The B’s went up against two of the weakest teams in the league. For most teams, they would have collected their four points and looked ahead. Right now, the Bruins have only a single point. Instead of looking ahead, they’re looking at the present to find a way to stop the bleeding.
This week is turning a compressed version of the Bruins season. The Black and Gold collapsed on home ice and allowed the New York Islanders shut them out at the TD Garden. It was such an ugly defeat that Claude Julien cancelled practice on Tuesday in an effort to have the team regroup.
