COMMENTARY
The Boston Bruins had a December – and January – to remember. February began even better.
Four consecutive regulation wins had the Black and Gold knocking on the President’s Trophy door as the best team in the NHL coming into Saturday night. Wednesday’s win, a second road game in 24 hours against the Rangers, was arguably the statement game of the season thus far. After falling behind, 1-0, Boston stormed back with six unanswered goals for the 6-1 triumph.
The B’s returned home with a proverbial “gimme-game” against the lowly Buffalo Sabres Saturday night at TD Garden.
