BUFFALO, N.Y. - When the going gets tough for any team, everybody's eyes often turn to the group's leaders to guide them out of the abyss and push things back in the right direction.
Such was the situation the Bruins faced on Thursday night in Buffalo.
The game was headed a bit sideways early on for Boston. David Backes was sidelined after taking a high hit to the head. And the Bruins once again found themselves in a multi-goal, first-period hole.
