The Boston Bruins blew a 2-0 lead and lost 3-2 in a shootout for the second consecutive game – this time to the Vancouver Canucks.
This was the tenth loss in a row for the Bruins.
Alas.…another loss, Boston Bruins fans. This time, it was 4-1 to Alex Ovechkin and the high-flying Washington Capitals.
and in other news…..
The Bruins stand alone in 12th place in the Eastern conference as they begin February with a familiar result – a loss in which they scored one goal.
**************
I really hope to have a victory to report soon.
Milton Supman ain’t walking through that door, folks….
There are a very finite number of Soupy Sales videos available…and he ain’t making no more.

Saturday night’s loss to the Los Angeles Kings made it seven straight losses for the Boston Bruins – now 1-8-2 in their last 11 games.
Heading into this past weekend’s games against Ottawa and Carolina, the Bruins were teetering precariously on the verge of being out of the playoff picture in the East. Thanks to losses in both weekend games, the Bruins are now on the outside looking in – in 9th place in the East. They are only three points from being in 13th place. Wtf happened? Which season is, or was, the fluke – this season, or last season? There are 33 games remaining for the Bruins this season to help us decide. So far, with Patrice Bergeron and Tuukka Rask being the exceptions, every returning Bruin has been a disappointment this season.
Losers of 8 of their last 9 games, the Bruins are heading downhill with stunning alacrity:
Quick, bitter, synopsis of the two games:
Ottawa: 2-1 loss. Tim Thomas allows another bad goal. B’s offense is AWOL. Daniel Paille had a nice bullet of a goal for the Bruins.
@Carolina: 5-1 loss. Thomas pulled after 4 goals. In the Carolina Hurricanes, the Bruins were facing the worst team in the 30-team NHL. Yikes.

That being said – I really am keeping the faith for this year’s Boston Bruins.
I better, because right now, no one else is gonna do it.
