The Boston Bruins end a three-game homestand Saturday night against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The Blue Jackets dominated the Bruins in a 6-2 win on Dec. 27 at Nationwide Arena, and the B’s are well aware of what happened that night.

“It sure was ugly,” Bruins defenseman Torey Krug said. “It’s nothing that the guys in this room are proud of, but after that, we decided to take a look at ourselves and try and get back to doing what Bruins hockey does.

“That’s playing with that competitive edge, and being a hard team to play against and being solid and sound defensively. That was a game that was way out of hand. It wasn’t who we are, and we weren’t happy with that.”

Since that loss, the Bruins have taken points from nine straight games, including a season-high five-game win streak that will be on the line Saturday night.
