The Boston Bruins haven't been playing very well in their last couple of games, losing 5-2 to the New York Rangers and 3-2 to the Philadelphia Flyers, both of whom occupy playoff spots in the Metropolitan Division.
With the Bruins set to embark on a five-game road trip against the Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning, Washington Capitals, Nashville Predators and Carolina Hurricanes, Montgomery wants to spark his team before they leave and wants to see that fight they've shown all season long. It'll be a tough road trip however, with all five teams currently in playoff positions as of Monday morning.
While it's still unclear when, during their five-game road trip, the Boston Bruins will have an opportunity to clinch a berth in the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, in what would be their eighth consecutive appearance in the big dance.
