Another huge stretch looms in the Bruins schedule
The Boston Bruins currently have a 12-point lead for first place in the NHL, as they sit at 35-5-4 just over halfway through the season.
What they've done already is simply amazing but like Linus Ullmark has reiterated, they cannot get complacent.
Including last night's game against the Islanders, the team is currently in the midst of another tough stretch of schedule. Adam Pellerin of NESN shared the daunting schedule that looms for the Bruins.
The Bruins on the road to play the Islanders - kicking off a stretch of 7 of 8 on the road. The B's only have two home games over the next month.

TD Garden in Boston has been a safe haven for the Bruins this season. Yes, they only have 9 losses, but the club is 21-1-3 on home ice.
Not only will they be on the road a lot coming up, they will face some tough competition like the Rangers, Avalanche and Stars. Not only that, the Bruins will be visiting teams closest to them in the standings, including the Lightning, Hurricanes and Maple Leafs.
