After the March 2 game against the Penguins, fans were expecting a turnaround after the Boston Bruins had a five-game losing streak. But after that game, they lost against the Minnesota Wild 1-0, and today, the Bruins have again invited heavy backlash. The Bruins lost the game by a staggering 6-3 margin to the Nashville Predators, and fans have had enough. NHL reporter Conor Ryan has taken it to X to reveal how fans reacted to the loss.

Conor Rayn posted on X, “Final: Bruins fall to the Predators, 6-3. Boston has now lost nine of its last 12 games — with this latest defeat coming against a Nashville team that entered tonight a putrid 6-20-4 in road games.” And also revealed what happened in the TD Garden arena when the Bruins were having tough times: “A whole lot of boos at TD Garden.” But the stadium was not the only place fans gave Bruins a piece of their mind.

To take a quick recap of the game, the Bruins’ Charlie Coyle, Jordan Oesterle, and Morgan Geekie scored goals in today’s game. These were only the three in comparison to the Predators, who scored 6. From the Predators, Ryan O’Reilly, Steven Stamkos, Tommy Novak, Jonathan Marchessault, and Mark Jankowski scored goals in a game that could have easily added to their poor on-the-road record. But what went wrong for the Bruins this time?

According to their head coach, Joe Sacco, it has some patterns. When NESN’s Andy Brickley asked the interim head about the back-to-back losses, Sacco said, “It started with puck management. Too many turnovers. Gave them the puck to them way too often tonight. And then, not having the layers in the defensive zone. Some missed assignments there and then we relied on our structure. And that got away from us there.” But despite knowing the patterns and pitfalls, the Bruins are not getting over it. Looks like a curse, right?

But fans cannot think the same way or spare the Boston Bruins if they lose again and again…and again. It hurts to see our favorite team lose and force us to boo them. But those fans who were not in the TD Garden have bashed the Boston Bruins with their reactions on X (formerly Twitter).

Fans fumed over the Boston Bruins’ back-to-back losses 

The Bruins fans heavily booed the team and reacted on social media. As the team lost its 9th game out of the past 12, a fan shared his reaction on X, saying, “I just smashed my 80-inch TV, and my wife just moved out and took the kids. This team has ruined my life. I can’t believe what this team is going through. I’m going to have to move to a real town like South Florida so I can enjoy hockey once again.” This captures the raw despair, heartbreak, and utter frustration of a fan pushed past their breaking point by a team that’s let them down one too many times.

And as the team has only won three games out of the last 12, an X user and the Boston Bruins fan didn’t hesitate to say, “Sell the team.” And as the team just won a game and again lost the other one, one of the true fans commented on the Bruins’ post on X, “Can we just stop getting belt to a** for one game?” But, among all the crying fans, one fan stood up and showed hope for a better future for the Bruins. 

Though another fan started the comment with sarcasm, it has an essence of love for the team. The fan said, “Yeah. Don’t trade Marchand. Give him a new contract, so we can extend this painful error in Boston Bruins hockey for a few more years. Start trading some of the players at the top of the roster, and make a real change to this team. Time for a new beginning.”

The Bruins have their next game on March 6 against the Carolina Hurricanes. Let’s see if the Boston Bruins get booed again or can have their next win.
