35: the number of goals by Alex Ovechkin
33: the number of points by the leading scorer on the Bruins (Patrice Bergeron)
Ouch. The Bruins take on the Capitals at the Garden tonight in a game that could get ugly for the hometown team. The Caps are flying high, currently riding a 10 game winning streak. Meanwhile the Bruins are flopping around in a huge pile of dung, currently on a 7 game losing streak. So much for the excitement and momentum of the Outdoor Classic. The Bruins have just 2 wins in 13 games since then. Something big needs to happen to get this team moving. I don't know what the answer is; fire the coach, make a big trade, or change the style of play... but something definitely needs to change.
I have a feeling we will be hearing some "boos" directed at the Black and Gold tonight from the Garden faithful. A win tonight against the Eastern Conference leaders could be just the kick in the ass that the Bruins need. But I wouldn't count on it happening.

Very good first period. Still, I feel like last year's team would have put away at least 1 more of those chances. Let's see if the Bs can keep it up.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great stat. Gotta love the Bruins, longest losing streak in over 50 years. Julien will be fired by the end of the year and Neely will be coaching.
