Zero Shots in the 3rd, Zero Answers From the Coach

In this episode of Locked On Boston Bruins, host Ian McLaren delves into the team's recent struggles, particularly focusing on their lackluster performance in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Ottawa Senators.  The Bruins failed to register a single shot on goal in the third period, a feat not seen since 2006. McLaren discusses the implications of this performance, questioning both coaching strategies and team composition.  He highlights the challenges faced by key players like David Pastrnak, who is recovering from an off-season injury, and the impact of recent roster changes.  As the Bruins prepare for upcoming games against Western Conference teams, McLaren explores potential strategies for improvement and the possibility of management changes if the team's performance doesn't improve.  Tune in for an in-depth analysis of the Bruins' current state and what lies ahead. 0:00 Intro 2:04 Bruins' Third Period Struggles 5:43 Coach's Post-Game Comments 9:17 Team Composition Concerns 12:23 Third Period Statistics 15:27 Mental and Physical Challenges 18:30 Potential Coaching Changes 21:03 David Pastrnak's Slow Start 23:40 Upcoming Games Preview 26:12 Closing RemarksSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
