ARLINGTON, Va. — The Bruins might have clinched a playoff spot on Thursday, but Brad Marchand and the rest of his teammates aren’t planning on hitting cruise control for the final eight games on the regular-season docket.
Beyond the uncertainty regarding Boston’s first-round matchup, Marchand and Co. believe that the Bruins still need to build their respective game before the playoffs arrive next month.
And with six of Boston’s final eight games currently scheduled against opponents in the playoff picture, Marchand believes the Bruins are in a prime position to sharpen their play in April.
