The Boston Bruins begin a daunting stretch in the 2025-26 schedule on Wednesday night against the Atlantic Division-leading Buffalo Sabres. Who knew when the season started that we would be saying first-place Buffalo Sabres? Here we are.
Boston is in Western New York, playing on the backend of a back-to-back after hosting the Toronto Maple Leafs at the TD Garden on Tuesday night. In what should have been two points turned into a brutal 4-2 loss to their Original Six rivals. Given the schedule Marco Sturm has coming up, it was a devastating loss in terms of the playoffs.
