This is the worst losing skid for the Boston Bruins since the 2014-15 season.

Brayden Point reached 600 career points with a power-play goal, Andrei Vasilevskiy made 27 saves and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Boston Bruins 4-1 on Thursday night.

The Bruins look to end their five-game winning drought as they travel to Florida to take on the Lightning Thursday in the first meeting this season between the two teams.
