Bruins' Chara unhappy with road trip: 'We got four out of a possible 10 points'
The Boston Bruins ended their five-game road trip on a positive note, defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 6-2 on Sunday, but captain Zdeno Chara was more concerned with the previous four games.
Boston went 0-2-2 on the first four games of its trip, extending its winless skid to six games. For Chara, all that really matters is the points the Bruins left on the table in those losses.

Despite the team's recent struggles, Chara is hopeful the Bruins can carry some momentum from beating a strong team like the Blackhawks into the final stretch of the regular season as they try to secure a playoff spot.
"We've just got to make sure we bring the game we played today against Chicago to our next game at home," he said. "We need to do that."
