Marco Sturm tries to make sense of Bruins' struggles at home during playoffs
All season long the Bruins were a dominant team at home. That wasn’t the case in the playoffs.
BOSTON — All season long the Bruins were a dominant team at home. That wasn’t the case in the playoffs. Boston dropped all three first-round games at TD Garden, including Friday’s Game 6 loss that knocked the Bruins from the playoffs.
“We didn’t think on the road. I think on the road it was much easier. I think, obviously, we noticed a little bit of the pressure.
I don’t know. I’m not sure. I’m just talking, I guess what I feel,” Sturm said.
“What I think is we felt a little bit of the pressure, especially after last game being at home. ” Why did the Bruins feel pressure in a familiar building that brought them so much success in 2025-26? “Because we care,” Sturm said.
