Boston Bruins Have A Major Advantage For Their Two Upcoming Games According To This Ridiculous Stat
The Boston Bruins have a two-game home stint in TD Garden this weekend. They will be facing two teams, who they share terrible statistics with.
The Bruins, Montreal Canadiens, and Pittsburgh Penguins all have terrible goal differentials in the NHL.
The only minor difference is the Bruins are 3rd in the Atlantic Division with a -18 goal differential.
Only slightly better than their rivals, the Monreal Canadiens who are 7th in the Atlantic Division, with a -21 goal differential. The team is currently in a rebuild, which could be their only excuse.
Or is it a matter of bad coaching? Either way, it's not looking good for Martin St. Louis.
While the Pittsburgh Penguins are a shell of their former selves, who are 8th in the Metropolitan Division, with a whopping -33 goal differential. Under former Stanley Cup-winning Head Coach Mike Sullivan.
The Penguins did end their losing streak against the Vancouver Canucks recently, but the Bruins aren't this bad:
With the Boston Bruins under interim Coach Joe Sacco, the team should course correct soon, as they have tightened up on defense
In the last three games, the Bruins have only given up 4 goals to the Detroit Red Wings, and New York Islanders.
While they shut out the Utah Hockey Club.
So, the statistic is troubling for the club, they'll still need to dig themselves out of the hole from earlier in the season.
