Is it time for major changes? CEO Charlie Jacobs made one thing clear Wednesday: He has faith in Sweeney and Neely to make the right moves.

There's an argument that the Flames don't need to get "tougher" as Frederic is a well-known fighter, but not many guys drop the guys and almost score 20 goals, which is why the Bruins rewarded him with their last contract extension.

Trent Frederic and the rest of the Bruins defended teammate Mark Kastelic on Tuesday after Lightning forward Emil Lilleberg's cheap shot last week.

David Pastrnak had a goal and two assists and Parker Wotherspoon scored his first NHL goal to help the Boston Bruins open a four-goal lead and hold on to beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 6-2.

Frederic scored a goal, added two hits and logged a fighting major in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Lightning. Frederic has earned three points and 14 PIM over seven games in January. This was the first time since Dec.
