The Boston Bruins are fighting to stay relevant in a season full of turbulence. Despite sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference, back-to-back wins have sparked a hint of optimism — capped by a 5–2 comeback victory over the Islanders. Hampus Lindholm’s return gave the defense new life, while Morgan Geekie’s red-hot streak — now eight goals and counting — continues to drive the offense. The power play came through with two key tallies, signaling long-awaited progress on special teams.
Host Ian McLaren breaks down how this win fits into the bigger question surrounding the Bruins: Are they clawing back into the playoff race, or inching closer to a strategic reset? Trade rumors continue to swirl around Pavel Zacha and Casey Mittelstadt, though sources indicate management still views Zacha as part of the long-term core. With David Pastrnak in his prime and the team’s direction uncertain, Boston faces a defining moment — stay the course and push for contention, or embrace a full retool for the future.
