The Boston Bruins will try to regain their hard-working approach to the game after getting whacked by Anaheim last night. And in some ways they’ll have the perfect opponent across from them at TD Garden tomorrow, as the New York Islanders are coming to town.

On the one hand, the Bruins could take the Isles, who lost to Ottawa in overtime 3-2 last night, lightly. But more likely the Bruins will look at the Isles as a team they can beat with their advantage in talent if they work as hard as the Isles always do. If not the result could be an embarrassing loss on home ice, as the Bruins try to make sure they can finish this season-opening homestand with a winning record.
