Bruins Fall Short Against Hurricanes Amidst Ongoing Struggles
Familiar Foes Prove Too Much
Once again, the Boston Bruins have fallen short against a familiar foe. On Wednesday night, they lost 3-2 to the Carolina Hurricanes at home, extending their losing streak to three games. The Bruins have now lost to the Hurricanes four times this season.
The Bruins came out strong in the first period, scoring the game's first goal on a power play. However, the Hurricanes tied the game late in the period, and took the lead for good in the second period. The Bruins had a chance to tie the game late in the third period, but they couldn't convert on a power play.
Struggles Continue
The Bruins' loss to the Hurricanes is just the latest in a series of disappointing performances. The Bruins have now lost five of their last seven games, and they have not won a game in regulation since February 24th.
The Bruins' struggles are due to a number of factors. One of the biggest problems has been their inability to score goals. The Bruins have scored just two goals in their last three games, and they have the worst power play in the NHL.
Another problem for the Bruins has been their defense. The Bruins have allowed 15 goals in their last three games, and they have the second-worst goals-against average in the NHL.
Time to Turn it Around
The Bruins are now in a precarious position. They are currently three points out of a playoff spot, and they have just 13 games remaining in the regular season.
The Bruins need to turn things around quickly if they want to make the playoffs. They need to start scoring more goals, and they need to play better defense. They also need to find a way to win games against their division rivals.
The Bruins have a tough road ahead of them, but they still have a chance to make the playoffs. They need to find a way to turn things around quickly, or their season will be over before they know it.
