If the Ottawa Senators lose tonight and the Bruins win, the Bruins are officially in 8th in the Conference. Really, that's all you need to know.
The Bruins take on a struggling Columbus Blue Jackets team tonight. Are we going to have to suffer through a bajillion trade rumors for the next few days? Probably. Should we listen to them? Probably not. Is this a trap game that would be really embarrassing to lose?
Obviously.
After the jump, the Isles' new thirds are hideous, the Canucks and Senators have the same record, and Tyler Seguin wears that awful Dunkin Donuts jersey again...
