Back here on WEEI afternoon, we'll go right to the guest line for our weekly chat with Andrew Razor Raycroft from Nesson.

Razor is brought to you by John Sewer and Drain Cleaning, the name to know when your drains don't flow.

And by Shaw's and Star Market, proud to be local since 1860.

Happy New Year, Razor.

Gentlemen, it's happy New Year. Yes, it's been a few weeks. Good to hear you. Gentlemen, happy New Year, yes.

It's been a few weeks.

Good to hear you.

Although, is it happy around the Bruins?

Let's start with a nice general question.

What's going on with the Bruins as they fall down the standings in the Atlantic, the East, and are kind of scuffling?

Yeah, I mean, they played bad in Seattle. Their last game of the road trip, they had a good

opportunity. They had Seattle on a back-to-back, and they could have went in there and really

made a great road trip. They were two-one and one on the trip prior to that. They ended up 500. I

think they all would have taken 500. That's a tough trip after the holidays, et cetera.

And now they have to make head here with this five-game homestands.

So, I mean, the standings are the standings.

You literally, with a win tonight, they'll move up five places.

It's just so tight in the Eastern Conference.

So I think, like Marco Stern talked about this morning, it's about playing the right

way, and they want to get back to playing the right way after they didn't do that in their last

game in Seattle. It's coming off the road, they flew all day yesterday. So tonight's a tough

effort to get the energy level up, and then they go back to back with Eastern Conference teams
