Going into the three-day holiday break, the Boston Bruins dropped four out of five games, going 1-3-1 with a loss to the Vancouver Canucks in a shootout, mixed in with three regulation losses. There was no shortage of blame to go around for the failures on the homestand, from the players to head coach Marco Sturm.
