Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren breaks down the storylines, stats and signals from a 4-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

- Special Teams Issues: The Bruins allowed three power play goals to Toronto and went 0 for 6 on their own power play opportunities, leading to a 4-0 loss.

- Penalty Problems: They lead the league in minor penalties, with seven taken in the recent game, highlighting a season-long discipline issue.

- Offensive Struggles: Key players like Trent Frederic and Pavel Zacha are underperforming, contributing to the team's low ranking in goals and 5-on-5 shooting percentage.

- Standings Concerns: The loss dropped the Bruins below .500, placing them sixth in the Atlantic Division with several teams close behind.

- Need for Improvement: Both the coach and players acknowledge the need to improve special teams execution and discipline as they face tougher opponents.

Ian discusses the psychological impact of penalty issues on team morale, potential strategic adjustments for power play efficiency, and the need for a shift in leadership dynamics to enhance discipline.
