- Bruins being ‘very immature’ led to loss vs. Kraken
The Bruins have had stretches this season where they’ve been that tough out Cam Neely believed they would be. But there have also been stretches where Boston has let the game slip away.
Such was the case Tuesday in the Bruins’ 7-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken .

“We were very immature, I can tell you that,” Sturm told NESN after the game . “That’s what happened today. They didn’t do anything. They went back in their zone, they stopped, they went up and down the ice, and we made the mistakes. And of course, penalties hurt us again, all of them. And now all of a sudden, you give up two points here. We definitely should have grabbed today, and that’s the most frustrating and disappointing part of it.”
The Kraken are among the worst offenses in the NHL and were playing the second game of a back-to-back. Boston went into its final game of the road trip having two days off, but sloppy play and untimely penalties led to the Bruins ’ third loss of the trip.
The loss dropped the Bruins to 22-19-2 on the season — ahead of only the Ottawa Senators in the Atlantic Division standings.
The standings are tight and there’s still time for the Bruins to get themselves back in the playoff picture before it’s too late. But they need to play more disciplined if they want a shot at the playoffs.
