The Boston Bruins are riding a rough patch, and their fans are not loving it. Just a few days ago, the Ottawa Senators handed them a 6-3 loss, with Drake Batherson putting on a show with two goals and an assist. Brady Tkachuk kept his hot streak alive, and the Sens exerted their dominance with their fifth straight win. Meanwhile, the Bruins just couldn’t turn the tide, and now, things aren’t looking any better.
Fast forward to their showdown at TD Garden against the Tampa Bay Lightning, and, well, let’s just say that the Bruins fans are gripping their seats for all the wrong reasons. While the scoreboard lit up, it wasn’t in Boston’s favor—Tampa Bay was sitting comfortably with a 4-2 lead, leaving Bruins fans shaking their heads. It might have been easier to shake off the defeat handed to the Bruins by the Senators. But this! This loss to the Lightning in front of a home crowd was rubbing salt in the wound.
Sportsnet wasn’t about to let this one slide. They took to X mid-game, dropping a brutal clip from the second period when Tampa Bay was sitting pretty up there with four goals, while the Bruins? Yeah… they were still stuck at one. And to make matters worse, not even a single shot towards the net in that entire period. Sportsnet summed it up perfectly, captioning the post, “Bruins fans express their displeasure after Boston fails to record a single shot on goal in the second period.” Ouch. You know it’s bad when the home crowd doesn’t even have the energy to boo.
And as soon as that hooter went off? Pure, deafening silence. No claps, no cheers—just a whole arena full of stunned, disappointed faces. Watching your team struggle is one thing, but watching them completely shut down in your own backyard? That’s a different level of heartbreak.
