The Boston Bruins' struggles have deepened after trading five regular players at the trade deadline, now on a five-game losing streak. Their latest loss to the San Jose Sharks, the NHL's worst team, highlighted their difficulties, especially as it marked the Sharks' first victory over Boston since 2016. A controversial game-winning goal by San Jose's Lucas Carlsson raised questions about offside, but Bruins coach Joe Sacco chose not to challenge the call, citing possession issues with player Timothy Liljegren.
"From our perspective, the player [Liljegren] that was carrying the puck, he did not have possession. He let go of it before he entered the blue line."
"Saturday night marked another low for a laboring Bruins team, with Boston falling to the worst team in the NHL in the San Jose Sharks, 3-1, at SAP Center."
