Much to the Bruins’ fans delights, Boston has not spent more time in the box than their opponents this season. The Bruins have drawn 200 penalties, and have taken 200 as well.

The Bruins have always had relatively poor penalty differentials. Since the 2008-09 season where the Bruins had a +12 penalty differential, the Bruins have only had one season with a positive penalty differential (2010-11, +2). In fact, since the start of the 2008-09 season, the Bruins have a -189 penalty differential.

There may be many reasons behind this. For one, Bruce Cassidy’s team has played with far more speed than recent years, which is the leading cause to penalties.
