The way the Boston Bruins have been losing games on this historic skid has been heartbreaking. The Montreal Canadiens have contributed to this pain, handing the Bruins an excruciating loss just three days ago. Coming off yet another shootout defeat, Boston looks to avoid matching a franchise-worst 11-game losing streak Sunday when it visits a Montreal team trying to win its fourth in a row.

Pavol Demitra tied the game on a tip-in with 4:42 left and scored the only goal of the shootout to lift the Vancouver Canucks to a 3-2 win Saturday that sent the reeling Boston Bruins to their 10th straight loss.
