Boston were chased hard by the Panthers a few weeks ago and then they responded by pulling away seemingly securing a playoff spot. Now they lost five straight games and lost control of their own destiny. Losing to Buffalo and to both teams who are chasing them is not a great way to play in a crucial stretch to say the least. That's a pretty fragile team right there with a bunch of really tough games coming up, and it's entirely possible that both the Senators and the Panthers will leapfrog the Bruins in the standnings.
