After coming off a five-game road trip where the Boston Bruins felt like they left two valuable points on the table with a 7-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night, they were facing a tricky game against the Calgary Flames. The first game at home off a long road trip is never easy, but especially with it being just 45 hours after playing your last game and traveling across the country.
Not to mention the Black and Gold were looking for some revenge for a frustrating 2-1 overtime loss 10 days earlier in Calgary.
