This was quite apparent after today's practice when Montgomery spoke to the media and was asked a question about what was said during a huddle with his leadership group.
After the team's fantastic start and sustained success up until recently, these kinds of lulls can happen to any great team. It comes down to the leadership group and the head coach to continue to motivate the team and push them forward as the long slog of the season can cool off.
The schedule will begin to tighten with 27 games remaining. The Bruins will be on the road for a four game western road swing and then have a compacted March with 14 games in 30 days.
The Bruins next game will be at home against the Dallas Stars and puck drop will happen at 1:00 PM on Monday February 19th.
