The Hockey News' Emma Lingan and Michael Augello break down the latest Brad Marchand buzz. Things just keep getting worse for the Boston Bruins. In their latest matchup against the Carolina Hurricanes, they suffered their worst loss of the season, falling by an 8-2 final score. They have now lost five out of their last six games. With the Bruins struggling so much, head coach Jim Montgomery completely changed the club's lineup for their matchup against the Canes. Most notably, the fourth line of Cole Koepke, Johnny Beecher, and Mark Kastelic – the club's best trio all season – was broken up. This obviously did not benefit the Bruins, as evidenced by their brutal loss. While speaking to reporters, Bruins superstar David Pastrnak defended Montgomery's decision and made it clear that he feels this loss was not the coach's fault. Here is what No. 88 said on the matter: "Monty’s just trying to get us going. The mixing lines, it happens. Personally, I have no problem with it. I can read off anybody. Right now, it’s not about the combinations. We are not good enough as a team, and that’s where it starts." Pastrnak is certainly correct that the Bruins have not been good enough. At this juncture, they have a 4-6-1 record, which is far worse than expected. They still have time to turn things around, but things look bad right now.
