March’s mad grip fastened its knot on the Bruins on Friday afternoon.  It was a reminder that heartache can strike year after year, and destiny’s hand can drag one back to a familiar stop.  About a year removed from their heartbreaker against the Ducks – one that prematurely fractured the Bruins’ season – an eerily similar trajectory awaited.

The Bruins received a wakeup call as they came out sluggish, fell behind by double digits early and never recovered against the Badgers on Friday.
