Through 19 games, the Bruins have sported a record of 5-3-2 at TD Garden this season.
It’s far from a flashy showing on Causeway Street, albeit an improvement over the team’s showing so far on the road (3-5-1).
But considering just how disjointed Boston’s effort has been on home ice, it’s a surprise in and of itself that the Bruins have managed to secure five wins at all in their own barn.
The Bruins once again fell into the same familiar routine that paved the way for a disappointing result on Saturday afternoon — coughing up a 2-1 lead in the third period of play en route to an eventual 3-2 overtime defeat against the Blues.
