The Boston Bruins fell to the Detroit Red Wings, 2-1, tonight at the TD Garden, despite throwing 42 shots on net, nearly triple Detroit’s shot count.
“We didn’t pass up on a lot of shots,” Joe Sacco said. “We made it a little easy on the goaltender at times by not getting in front of him enough. I thought we could have done a better job of providing a screen, taking his sight lines away better than what we did, certainly make it a little bit harder on him.”
But the Bruins failed to finish scoring chances, leaving rebounds while also not recreating enough second chances from shots that Alex Nedeljkovic was able to control.
