The Boston Bruins want to be more aggressive in Game 2 against the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday.
Boston is coming off a stunning 4-3 loss to the Sabres in Game 1, in a game that the Bruins allowed four-straight goals in the third period, before David Pastrnak scored with seconds left to make it 4-3.
Ahead of a pivotal Game 2, Bruins forward Pavel Zacha said he and the team have to be more aggressive on the forecheck.
“I think we weren’t as aggressive on the forecheck,” Zacha said ahead of Tuesday’s game. “I think that’s something we’ve talked about as a line, that we have to go be more aggressive, win our puck battles there. I think we tried to defend a little bit too much.
“There are always ups and downs, so it’s nice to have that comfortability to talk to your teammates. Especially your linemates – we watched the video together, kind of talked what can we do better. That’s how we figure out the approach for us as a line for the next game. I think that’s important to be on the same page. Experience the first game and go from there.”
