With David Backes, David Pastrnak, and Patrice Bergeron all expected to miss tonight’s game, some Bruins players are starting to find it can be taxing on them. The annoyance stems from the fact that since the beginning of the season, they were unable to dress their full roster once.

Brad Marchand is finding it frustrating to deal with injuries and suspensions altogether. “It’s a little frustrating when we know we have a good team,” he said. Marchand went on to add “we still have a good team in here, and we need to find a way to win regardless” when talking about the team’s game plan amidst these untimely circumstances.

With today’s game being a divisional matchup, and both teams having a hard time of late, the young guns are expected to perform to fill in the gaps of those who have fallen. “We didn’t sit back. We just played a hard, honest game while minimizing the mistakes, and we did that,” said Claude Julien.
