Maybe there's a better place for this but I thought this was an interesting article about the Atlanta game right before Christmas during the 2010/11 season and how it turned that team's season around.

The Bruins can only hope that amidst all their turmoil this season, they can find a way to turn it around, but they’d be kidding themselves if they were to think they could do it the same way as they did back then.
Thornton is in Florida and Adam McQuaid is hurt. It’s less likely the Bruins will run over a team simply by beating them up the way they did with Atlanta, but they could†and just spitballing here — have more than two lines show up. Campbell's line, which owned that Atlanta game, could do something for the third or fourth time all season.
The point is they can be better, and doing so now could pay big dividends.
