Krejci/By S. Bradley
WILMINGTON, Mass. — Lots of 1-on-1 battles during Bruins practice today at Ristuccia Arena.
At least when you do it in practice, a Bruins player is guaranteed to win each showdown. Last night in Buffalo, the Bruins barely won anyway en route to a 6-0 loss.
Despite the third-period line shuffling in Buffalo, Boston was back to the alignment that started the game — with David Krejci between Benoit Pouliot and Jordan Caron and Chris Kelly on the top line. Both Tim Thomas and Tuukka Rask practiced after splitting the debacle against the Sabres.

[...] they can get after a crushing blow like that. Their was no fire at all in the team last night. Matt Kilman said the B’s focused mainly on 1-1 battles at their practice at Ristuccia Arena. The Bruins [...]
The bruins were dissapointing in that buffalo game. Hopefully that will be a rock bottom loss that will spring us out this slump were in. We need it! and Rask needs that old fire back. its tukka time!!
That loss to the sabres was rough. the bruins looked tired…but i think they will definitely be back to work now. Hopefully that was some rock bottom stuff we needed to bring us out of this slump.
Well I guess I will go first. That was absolutley emabarassing 40 mins of hockey. For all of the ranting I do on Looch I think he said it right they are starting to focus more on the other team than there’s. This team is so different from the November/December I am at a lost to figure it out. Thank you Mr. Thornton and Lucic for being the only players worthy of wearing the sweater last night, the rest should have had the B replaced with a P.
