What We Learned: Bruins show improvement in loss to Lightning

The Boston Bruins haven’t showcased the same sharpness we saw before the pause of the NHL’s season. But, upon licking their wounds from their lackluster 4-1 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers a few days ago, Bruce Cassidy’s squad showcased improvement against a highly skilled Tampa Bay Lightning bunch.

Yet, despite tying things up following a 2-0 deficit, they still found themselves on losing end in Toronto on Wednesday.

Bruce Cassidy’s side fell to 0-2 in round-robin play as Tyler Johnson’s goal with 1:27 left in regulation propelled Tampa to a 3-2 victory.

With the loss, Boston — the only 100-point team in the NHL this season — won’t earn the No.
