Last week was probably the worst week the Boston Bruins have had during this 2022-23 season: the team lost two games in regulation in a (Sunday-Saturday) week for the first time this campaign and didn’t look particularly good doing it.
The Bruins squandered a two-goal lead against the Edmonton Oilers and went 1-1 in back-to-back matinee games versus the Detroit Red Wings, where special teams allowed two power play AND two shorthanded goals.
Still, there were a couple of reasons for positivity this week, and one was the Bruins’ fourth line, which helped swing the momentum in favor of the Bruins in their first game against Detroit.
