Boston had been on a four-game winning streak and had won six of its past seven. Yet, against the Panthers, who aren’t going to be making the playoffs, the Bruins struggled, and Sturm felt like the team overlooked Florida. “We didn’t respect our opponent tonight,” Sturm said postgame, as seen on NESN’s postgame coverage.
“They had a lot of guys out, and we didn’t do our job. Shame on us today. It was a big push in the third, but it was a little bit too late.
“With a team like that, I don’t care who is out, they are a good structure team and played hard. We weren’t willing to do it. ” Florida led 2-0 less than eight minutes into the first period, as the Bruins struggled from the get-go and didn’t come out with the jump the team is usually playing with.
