The Boston Bruins have lost back to back games after a 6-5 shootout loss at the Detroit Red Wings on Wednesday. The Bruins lost despite leading by three goals on two occasions. "It was probably the quietest I think all year on that plane ride home from Detroit," forward David Backes said. "And to me that's a great sign that it hit us in the heart, it hit us where it mattered and we're thinking about how we can be better and turn the tide to be victorious next game out, and that's tonight." Forward Matt Beleskey is expected to return after missing 23 games with a knee injury. "I think so. We'll give him a shot there tonight," coach Claude Julien said. Beleskey has two goals and three assists in 24 games. "I think you've just got to keep it simple and do what I do well and just be hard on pucks, get on the body and just try to find your groove," said Beleskey, who last played Dec. 3. "You can't expect too much in your first game back. You've just got to keep it simple and be able to contribute."
