Just a little while ago it seemed almost guaranteed the Boston Bruins would win the Atlantic Division title.�
Unfortunately the Bruins let the division title slip out of their hands and will now face the Toronto Maple Leafs in the first round of the playoffs.�
The B's even had a bit of an advantage with Sunday's game against the Florida�Panthers, another chance to win the division title and they let it slip through their hands once again.�
"[The passion in our game] is what we were missing [Sunday], and then [problems with] execution crept in when we . . . started to want to get the game back [because] we did it more as individuals instead of a team," said head coach Bruce Cassidy. "Then, the third we started playing together, but then it's too late; we're chasing the game . . .
"We're not going to allow one game to define us, yet we understand the meaning. We let one get away, an opportunity lost to have home-ice advantage, and we'll see if that haunts us down the road. I think it's too early to tell that right now."
What Bruins team do you think will show up on Thursday?
