The Boston Bruins battled back, but came up short, falling 4-3 to the Washington Capitals at the TD Garden on Tuesday night.
With the loss, the Bruins are now on a nine-game losing streak.
“The guys are trying to get a win here,” Interim head coach Joe Sacco said. Despite his team’s loss, he felt the effort was there and gave credit to the team to first battle back down two goals to tie the game in the second and then not get discouraged when the Capitals regained a two-goal lead in the third.
“That’s the attitude that we have to have right now,” Sacco said.
