When the Boston Bruins hired Marco Sturm as their next coach, it signaled a change in style. The Bruins were going to be a team that prides itself on defense and goaltending. Build from the back out and let the offense come to them.
Through their first three games, they played that way perfectly for Sturm. There were leaks on Monday afternoon in a 4-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning at home. After three days off before beginning a three-game road trip in Vegas against the Golden Knights, there was time to fix it.
They didn't and paid for it in a 6-5 loss to the Golden Knights.
