There was bound to be a come-down at some point, what with a perfect weekend last weekend, a rousing comeback in Columbus, an impressive win over Dallas, etc. Unsurprisingly, that come-down came down (?) at the hands of the Florida Panthers, who ended the Bruins’ winning streak at four games with a 2-1 win in […]

Playing their second game in as many nights, the Bruins appeared to be out of gas through the first two periods in Columbus. The Blue Jackets took a 3-0 lead into the first intermission, and while the B’s showed some push-back in the middle period, it was looking like one of those nights. However, the […]
