Even though the Bruins are on a losing streak at a very inconvenient moment as the playoffs approach, one former player is still highly confident that Boston will be skating in the postseason.
Marc Savard, the 39-year-old center who scored 74 goals for the Bruins between 2006 and 2011, weighed in on Twitter to reassure worrying fans:
