So, we kind of just shake that off and got ready for this game." Obviously, it's a long season, and there's games that won't go your way, but I think we have a pretty good idea of what we have to do to be successful.
#Bruins vs predators how to
We kind of know how to play our game, and so it never comes up to effort or attitude - we've always got those. "I don't think individual games, really don't shape our mentality in that way," Preds goaltender Juuse Saros said following his shutout on Tuesday. Now, they'll look to win consecutive games for the first time since mid-November. But for Nashville, it's all about what they have inside of their own room, and the ability to respond after a loss this season has been a strong point. The Predators delivered with the additional rest, and now they'll look to do so once more against a Bruins team that has alternated wins and losses in their last six games. They know they get two days off, and they want to have a good performance out of it." And credit to the players - they're smart, too. Then we're flying home and we got in at I think 3 or 3:30, so Sunday's kind of a wash, and I think the extra day was good. "Sometimes you give two days off, sometimes you don't, but we just felt as a staff, after that game, these guys are hungry, they want to do the right things, and you can see it, but maybe they just need a little bit of a mental release. The atmosphere in the locker room was good, and you could just see it certainly was a really connected group, and the want was there, but I think it was a long stretch. We made mistakes, they wound up scoring goals. "I just felt like even in the Colorado game, you could tell - you guys don't see it - but just the spirit the team had, they were right at it, they were working, they were trying, but it wasn't the prettiest game.
The Predators and Bruins join the Calgary Flames, Florida Panthers and Colorado Avalanche who also will not play until after Christmas."We went through a pretty tough stretch," Hynes said of the Preds playing five games in an eight-day span around the Thanksgiving holiday. The Bruins' home game Thursday against Colorado had also been previously postponed by the NHL due to a COVID-19 outbreak on the Avalanche. "There are currently seven cases, but there could be three more tomorrow."īoston was expected to visit the Ottawa Senators on Sunday then return home to host the Carolina Hurricanes on Tuesday. "I'm not really comfortable playing against a team that has so many cases of COVID," Drouin said. After Montreal's 3-2 shootout win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday, with no spectators allowed in attendance at the Bell Centre, forward Jonathan Drouin expressed hesitation about playing the Bruins. The NHL had already postponed Boston's game Saturday against the Montreal Canadiens.
