PorTim Rosenthal
O Detroit Red Wings de 1995-96 e o Tampa Bay Lightning de 2018-1919 têm companhia.
Na noite de sábado, o Boston Bruins conquistou sua 62ª vitória na temporada 2022-23, empatando a marca de uma única temporada da NHL. Agora eles precisam de apenas uma vitória em seus próximos três jogos para ficar sozinhos no livro dos recordes.
“Sempre que você fala sobre colocar o nome do seu time e colocar o nosso ‘Spoked B’ no livro de história pelo maior número de vitórias na temporada regular é especial”, disse o técnico Jim Montgomery.
No sábado, eles enfrentaram o teste mais difícil de suas inclinações restantes da temporada regular.
Com o Carolina Hurricanes perdendo uma decisão de 4–3 em Buffalo no início do dia, o New Jersey Devils entrou no TD Garden com a chance de assumir o primeiro lugar na Divisão Metropolitana. Mas sua ascensão ao topo do metrô terá que esperar.

Aqui está o que aprendemos com o triunfo recorde de Boston na frente de um fiel turbulento da Causeway Street.
Os Bruins compreendem totalmente o significado histórico do recorde de vitórias.
“Eu dei os parabéns a eles”, disse Montgomery. “Façanha incrível, e amanhã temos a oportunidade em Filadélfia de estabelecer o recorde de vitórias.”
Anúncio:
Montgomery não precisou falar muito com seus jogadores após a 62ª vitória.
Os Bruins podem ter se esquivado publicamente de algumas perguntas sobre seu ritmo recorde no início do ano. Mas à medida que esse número mágico se aproximava, eles começaram a compartilhar um pouco mais de percepção sobre a potencial realização histórica.
Dentro do vestiário, no entanto, os B's unidos abraçaram totalmente o significado histórico, não pelas impressionantes realizações individuais - como Wayne Gretzky superando os gols e recordes de pontos de Gordie Howe - mas sim de uma perspectiva de equipe.
“Acho que eles entendem porque estamos falando sobre a história da NHL e você fala sobre há quanto tempo esta liga está aqui”, acrescentou Montgomery. “Acho que eles entenderam como quando Gretzky quebrou o recorde de Howe. É uma façanha individual e todos estão cientes disso. Mas nosso grupo está ciente do que estamos fazendo como equipe.”
Não se engane, no entanto. Os Bruins permanecem no momento.
Agora eles estão indo para a Filadélfia com a chance de quebrar o recorde na noite de domingo. No entanto, eles sabem que sua temporada histórica não valerá nada se não encerrarem a seca de 12 anos na Stanley Cup.
“É uma pena no boné”, disse Lindholm. “Mas estamos lutando por algo maior aqui.”
The Devils apresentou um desafio formidável para o livro dos recordes
O confronto Bruins-Devils de sábado teve aquela sensação de playoff.
Anúncio:
Os Bruins poderiam facilmente ter continuado a descansar mais de seu núcleo testado em batalha com a segunda temporada se aproximando em apenas uma semana. Além de Krejci, no entanto, eles apresentaram sua formação de prazo pós-negociação mais saudável.
Taylor Hall, que perdeu os últimos 20 jogos devido a uma lesão na parte inferior do corpo,voltou ao seu lugarna terceira linha ao lado de Charlie Coyle e Trent Frederic. Não demorou muito para o ex-Diabo se livrar das teias de aranha e se envolver.
— Bruins Daily (@BruinsDaily)9 de abril de 2023“Para voltar e sentir o ritmo do jogo, você se transforma rapidamente em um jogador de hóquei.”
Taylor Hall fala sobre seu retorno e a vitória recorde dos Bruins.pic.twitter.com/HFcWAhfImb
“Para voltar e sentir o ritmo do jogo, você se transforma claramente em um jogador de hóquei”, disse Hall. “Estava lotado esta noite. Foi uma atmosfera muito boa desde a queda do disco e um jogo muito divertido de se jogar. Empatar o recorde e fazer parte disso, é isso que eu queria voltar e fazer para ajudar nosso time. Foi muito divertido."
Os Bruins estavam com as mãos cheias contra um esquadrão do Devils que esperava ultrapassar Carolina.
As duas equipes trocaram chances de gol ao longo da partida de sábado. Eles abraçaram o calor do momento durante uma disputa apertada, de ida e volta, repleta de defesas oportunas de Ullmark e Blackwood e trocas tensas pós-apito, desde o confronto inicial até a buzina final.
Anúncio:
Como de costume, os Bruins permaneceram consistentes. A confiança mútua os ajudou a se unirem para mais uma vitória vigorosa no penúltimo jogo em casa da temporada.
Essa consistência só será um bom presságio para eles à medida que a primavera avança.
— Bruins Daily (@BruinsDaily)9 de abril de 2023“Confiamos no sistema. Nós confiamos em nós mesmos. Confiamos uns nos outros…”
Linus Ullmark sobre a vitória recorde dos Bruins.pic.twitter.com/GiWgdNcBHB
“Pela maneira como jogamos ao longo do ano, sabemos que podemos voltar e ampliar a vantagem e mantê-la”, disse Ullmark. “Jogar esses jogos apertados é muito divertido. Isso vai te preparar para os playoffs, e é sempre um pouco melhor quando você vai lá e vence esses.”
Os Bruins estão oficialmente na Copa ou no território do busto
Cada equipe que entra nos playoffs com oTroféu dos Presidentesna mão sempre terá o maior alvo.
Os Bruins, no entanto, não são recipientes comuns do Troféu dos Presidentes.
O Devils apresentou o desafio mais difícil dos quatro jogos restantes. Os Bruins concluem sua temporada regular com uma lista de três jogos com um trio de times eliminados da disputa pós-temporada nos Flyers, Capitals e Canadiens.
Não apenas o recorde de vitórias está à vista, mas a marca de 132 pontos de todos os tempos, estabelecida pelos Canadiens de 1976-77, permanece em risco. Os Bruins estão três pontos atrás do lendário time de Montreal treinado por Scotty Bowman.
Bowman também liderou o Red Wings de 1995-96 com 62 vitórias. O Colorado Avalanche interrompeu seus sonhos da Stanley Cup na final da Conferência Oeste. Detroit ganhou Copas consecutivas nos dois anos seguintes.
O Lightning de Jon Cooper igualou a marca de vitórias de todos os tempos há apenas quatro temporadas. O Columbus Blue Jackets envergonhou Tampa em uma varredura no primeiro turno. Como Detroit, o Lightning ganhou copas consecutivas na bolha dos playoffs de 2020 no Canadá e na campanha encurtada do COVID de 2021.
Anúncio:
Montgomery sonha em ter seu nome gravado na Copa como Bowman e Cooper. Mas ele quer realizar essa tarefa completando uma temporada potencial única na vida.
"É incrivel. Mas prefiro pegar as Copas Stanley que eles têm do que isso. E é isso que estamos perseguindo”, disse Montgomery.
“No final das contas, isso é ótimo. Nossa temporada regular tem sido ótima, mas precisamos vencer o último jogo da temporada. E é para isso que estamos nos inclinando. Ser capaz de manter o foco e aprender a vencer quando estamos perseguindo recordes é a coisa mais próxima que você pode fazer quando está tendo uma temporada como a nossa para nos preparar para os playoffs. Foi um jogo do tipo playoff e acho que realmente administramos bem o jogo, ofensivamente, defensivamente e times especiais”.
