The Bruins made too many defensive mistakes tonight against the Winnipeg Jets and the Jets capitalized on them to beat the Bruins 4-2.
In the second period, Jordan Caron scored his 3rd goal of the season to tie the game 1-1. In the third period, David Krejci scored his 12th goal of the season to tie the game 2-2. Jets Bryan Little would score twice to make it 4-2. Blake Wheeler finished the game with a goal and 2 assists.
Tuukka Rask played in net for the Bruins and made 21 saves on 25 shots. Rask is now 11-8-2 with a 2.11 GAA and a .928 save percentage.
Game notes
The Bruins led the game in shots 33-25 and blocked shots 13-11. The Jets led the game in faceoff wins 32-29 and hits 30-23.
The Bruins and Jets both went 0-for-2 on the power-play.
Zdeno Chara had another bad game, making some bad decisions, and was -2. Johnny Boychuk and Benoit Pouliot were also -2 in the game.
Johnny Boychuk led the Bruins in shots with 4.
Chris Kelly and Dennis Seidenberg led the Bruins in hits with 3 apiece.
Dennis Seidenberg led the Bruins in blocked shots with 4.
With Rich Peverley out of the lineup, Josh Hennessy got into the lineup, a native of MA, played in his first game with the Bruins. He played on the fourth line with Shawn Thornton and Gregory Campbell. He played well for the limited time he was out there (7:54 of ice time) and he even got matching roughingpenalties with ex-Bruin Mark Stuart as they mixed it up a little. He looks to be a player with speed and checking ability.
Onto the next one
The Bruins are now 35-19-2 with 72 points. The Bruins next game is on Sunday at the Minnesota Wild at 3:30pm ET.
