Just as they took a step forward after salvaging an overtime win over the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Boston Bruins took another step back amid their inconsistent start.
The Bruins encountered another night of sloppy passing and a slow-moving power play in Tuesday’s 2-0 setback to the Philadelphia Flyers. While some of the concerning early-season trends, like penalty trouble and turnovers, didn’t pop up as much, Jim Montgomery’s club continued to look out of sync within their offensive attack despite landing 21 shots on net through the first two periods.
Joonas Korpisalo kept his team afloat with 17 saves.
