The B’s were undeniably bad down in Dallas four nights ago, but any thoughts of them putting together a losing streak quickly vanished when it became incredibly apparent that the Devils were simply over-matched against the defending champs.
The good times couldn’t continue forever for the Bruins, but boy did they look sloppy during a number of stretches in this one, especially the first period.
: Is there anything left to say, any compliment that hasn’t been used to describe how just freakin’ dominant the Bruins have been for the last six-or-so weeks? It’s getting crazy, maybe even unfathomable, just how easily they win on a nightly basis.
Boston improved to 19-2-1 in the past 22 games, while the Habs just keep on slipping further and further. Montreal is now 12 points back of Boston in the division and will need a minor miracle to have any shot at reigning supreme in the Northeast this season.
In what was supposed to be a marquee matchup pitting the top two teams in the conference against one another, the Bruins simply ran away with this one for an unbelievably convincing victory.
The Senators could’ve easily gotten on the board early and turned the tide if it weren’t for a phenomenal performance by Thomas in the early-going. Once the Black and Gold woke up and began putting pucks past Anderson, Ottawa looked defeated. Boston is now tied with the Flyers for the most post in the East.
Rask made it look easy tonight, but the young netminder — and not just due to the obvious goose egg in the box score — looked more calm and composed than in any of his previous starts.
Real bizarre night out in Ohio for the Bruins. With a highly-successful performance on the PP, a parade to the penalty box for both squads, a rare early exit for Thomas and a breakthrough game for Joe Corvo, it couldn’t have been a much wackier sixty minutes of hockey.
The Bruins offense has suddenly gone missing. After barreling over a number of opponents during their mesmerizing run, the Black and Gold now have just one goal in the last 120 minutes of hockey.
And so one of the most magnificent point streak in recent NHL history has come to a close. The Bruins failed to gain at least a point in a game for the first time in nearly six weeks, suffering their first regulation loss since Oct. 29.
The Bruins point streak is now at fifteen games and counting, and perhaps no win was more impressive than this one. It was a clash of the Titans in the Eastern Conference and the Bruins reigned supreme.
What’s left to say about the B’s seemingly never-ending roll? The Leafs, once again, couldn’t handle Boston’s depth. They couldn’t get squat out of their leading scorer. And now, the Bruins have padded their lead in the Northeast Division.
What a difference a month makes. The B’s meteoric rise up the standings has not only completely erased the memories of the miserable Stanley Cup hangover, but has many believing that thoughts of a repeat might not be so crazy after all.
Things looked pretty bleak midway through the opening frame, as Boston was hemmed in their own zone by Winnipeg’s aggressive forecheck, but things turned around dramatically in the second. The Bruins could’ve easily had another letdown of a performance, but they bounced back after their first setback in nearly a month and returned to their winning ways.
Tough to see the streak come to a halt, but it had to happen at some point. Could one think of a more dangerous shootout team than the Red Wings? So many filthy moves that Rask simply had no shot at.
With a playoff-like feel from the drop of the puck until Pouliot lit the lamp in the shootout, tonight’s tilt was easily the most entertaining game for the Black and Gold in 2011-12. From the wave of fisticuffs in the opening period to the frantic finish, the B’s were engaged in an absolute thriller and undoubtedly left the revenge-seeking Sabres feeling stung.
Montreal, for the better part of the night, continued to carry play. Were it not for Tim Thomas and a few narrow misses, they likely would’ve run away with one.
Unfortunately Boston’s netminder was damn-near superhuman, stopping all 33 shots he faced to blank the Habs, giving the B’s their ninth-straight victory.
After two tightly-contested games, the Bruins returned to full-fledged blowout mode tonight. This one was simply never in doubt, as the B’s once again saw a surplus of players turn in great performances en route to their eighth-straight victory.
By the hair of their chinny, chin, chin, the Bruins narrowly escaped a catastrophically bad loss. In the end, luckily, they all count the same, and the winning streak is now pushed to seven games.
What started out as a snoozer actually turned out to be a pretty exciting hockey game to take in. The back-and-forth third period battle saw both teams display great resolve, with Boston ultimately finishing on top and earning win No. 6 in a row.
Just how good have the Bruins been of late? Over their five-game winning streak, they’ve outscored the opposition by a total of 30-10. For those counting at home, that’s six goals per game. Absurd.
Boston pushed their winning streak to four with the win tonight. During their run they’ve scored 24 goals, a far cry from the offensively-impotent team that struggled going 3-7-0 out of the gate.
The Bruins have made it three in a row and continue to distance themselves from the squad that once lost seven of its first ten games.
Well, if the Bruins aren’t feeling good after this win, there’s simply nothing that could lift their spirits. With a runaway win over the division-leading Leafs, the B’s have finally won two games in a row this year and appear to be turning the tide after their early-season slump.
All might not be right with the Black and Gold, but tonight’s win was sorely needed to stop the bleeding. Now with a victory over a team that came in red-hot, the Bruins hope they can continue righting the ship and get on a roll of their own.
Will this be the last time we see the Bruins roster and/or coaching staff as currently constituted? Many are calling for heads to roll or for trades to be made, as the Bruins are now off to a downright miserable start after capturing the Cup in June.
