COMMENTARY
Even with some reinforcements, the Boston Bruins have a habit of making things harder on themselves.
Boston’s trade deadline additions Taylor Hall, Curtis Lazar and Mike Reilly arrived on the scene following their lengthy car trips from Buffalo (for Hall and Lazar) and Ottawa (Reilly). The newest trio arrived ready to go in their first game donning the Spoked B for Tuesday’s tilt with the lowly Buffalo Sabres.
With the new arrivals and a returning Charlie McAvoy and Kevan Miller on the back-end, the Bruins overcame an early 1-0 deficit and took a 2-1 lead on the heels of David Krejci and Craig Smith’s tallies after 40 minutes of play.
