After winning each of their first two games following the trade deadline, the Bruins have lost back-to-back games. However, their latest loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on March 15 was a new low for the Original Six club [https://news.google.com/publications/CAAqBwgKMK-q0gsw7sXpAw/sections/CAQqEAgAKgcICjCvqtILMO7F6QMwluDfCA?hl=en-CA&gl=CA&ceid=CA%3Aen]. The Bruins notably did not record a single shot on goal during the second period in their loss against the Lightning. In addition, their offensive attack was poor throughout the matchup, as they finished the contest with just 12 shots. The Lightning, on the other hand, completely dominated the play, ending the night with 40 shots. It is very uncommon for an NHL club to finish a period with zero shots, so this is only the latest embarrassing moment for the Bruins in what has been a disastrous 2024-25 season for them. It has also come when the Bruins are desperately looking to move up the wild card standings and secure a playoff spot. However, with this ugly loss, the Bruins are now four points behind the New York Rangers for the final wild card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Bruins now have 14 games left this season to try to end the campaign on a high note. Their next game is on March 17 against the Buffalo Sabres, and it will be interesting to see how they respond following their ugly loss to the Lightning from here.
