The Bruins who were flying up the ranking quickly over the past couple of weeks have slid back down to 3rd in the Northeast. The main reason for the slide is the lack of offensive production, you add that with the injuries the Bruins have had on defense you got yourself a problem. Boston should have Wideman back on the ice, so that should help, but Boston needs is offensive stars to step up their game.
Too many times over the past couple of game the Bruins are getting out worked on the boards. That is nothing more then effort. We have seen them be able to play with the best, but they are so fucking inconsistent you just don't know what team is going to show up, and if they will show up for the entire game.
The good news is that Boston has had a lot of success against Ottawa the past couple of seasons, and even with all the injuries Boston is dealing with I still expect them to win this game (side note - Thomas should be in net tonight).
Game starts at 7:30 on NESN.
