After Sunday’s disappointing ending to an exciting year, the Bruins are ready to erase what occurred in the 2017-18 regular season and shift their attention to the Toronto Maple Leafs and the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
The Bruins were left licking their wounds Sunday night thanks to their lackluster 4-2 loss to the Florida Panthers. Instead of clinching the top seed and facing the New Jersey Devils in Round 1, the Bruins have a much more difficult opponent ahead come Thursday night.
With the sting of their missed opportunity still fresh, the new immediate focus was on getting better and getting ready for a young and talented Maple Leafs squad.
