In today's clash against the Flyers, the Bruins faced disappointment yet again, succumbing to a 3-2 defeat, marking their second consecutive loss. Head Coach Jim Montgomery addressed the media post-game, shedding light on the team's recent struggles against physically imposing opponents.

Montgomery acknowledged a troubling trend, noting the Bruins' difficulty in handling teams that excel in physicality. In his assessment, the past two games have seen the opposition effectively utilize robust physical play, leading to challenges for the Bruins on the ice.

"I think we're starting to see -- the last two games -- tight checking from teams that are either in the playoffs, or desperate to stay in or get in,"
remarked Montgomery, emphasizing the impact of physicality on his team's performance.




Looking ahead, the Bruins recognize the necessity of elevating their physicality to compete effectively and secure victories in the remaining games before the playoffs. It's a crucial adjustment they must make to achieve success on the ice in the upcoming matches.
