Game Preview

Despite ups and downs that were virtually nonexistent during last season’s President’s Trophy run, the Boston Bruins have still found their way to second in the Eastern Conference standings with 15 games to go.

How? Bouncing back from losses has been a key reason.

The Bruins had been 3-0-1 over a four-game span before a lackluster 5-1 loss on Monday against the St. Louis Blues, and now have a chance to respond in a Thursday visit to the rival Montreal Canadiens.
