TARRYTOWN, N.Y. - The Bruins got right back to work on Saturday afternoon with a brief but valuable practice in preparation of their Sunday matinee against the New York Rangers. After back-to-back lopsided losses to the Islanders and Rangers on consecutive nights, there was plenty for Boston coach Bruce Cassidy to unpack through video review and on-ice instruction.
"It sucks when you lose two in a row, to be honest with you," Cassidy said candidly after the B's practice at Madison Square Garden Training Center. "But you go back to work. You point out some mistakes. You make adjustments, especially when you play the same team again.
"I think that can be an advantage, you've got a chance to sort of lick your wounds. But also, it's a team that just beat you so hopefully you should be energized and ready to go again when you get another chance at them which will be [on Sunday].
"It was a good workday. Once it's done you realize you've addressed some things, worked on things. I guess we'll see [on Sunday] how it translates."
