Looking at the Boston Bruins' recent struggles along with upcoming games

The Boston Bruins haven't been able to find the consistency they want this season. While Jeremy Swayman's return to the net early in the year sparked a two-game win streak in his first two games of the season, the team has since gone just 2-6, including a two-game skid heading into the weekend.

While Swayman's contract negotiations were a major talking point heading into the season, he hasn't been able to give the team the lift they need.

Ahead of Sunday's game against the Kraken, the Bruins will be looking to scrape together some momentum in order to improve their standing in the Atlantic Division.

Following the game against the Kraken, the team will then hit the road for a clash with the Maple Leafs on Tuesday before returning home for a two-game stretch.

Tonight's game will also notably be the second to last meeting of the season between the Bruins and the Kraken, with their final game of the season set for Dec. 12 in Seattle.

With the Bruins looking to pull themselves up and out of last place in their division ahead of what they hope will be a deep playoff run, it will be interesting to see how things play out.
