Avalanche's Iginla confident stumbling Bruins will be 'fine'

Jerseys, sweaters and cell phones haven't been tossed onto the ice in protest of the Bruins' fruitless start to the 2013-14 season, but the concern is real in Boston.
The worry given rise by their current three-game losing skid, however, isn't shared by one of the team's leading goal scorers from a season ago, Colorado Avalanche forward Jarome Iginla.
"They've all been close games," Iginla told CSNNE's Joe Haggerty after Monday's win over the Bruins. "Getting (David) Krejci was a big boost for them, and I know they've got some guys out. I have no doubts that (the Bruins) will be just fine over there."
The Bruins, who couldn't fit Iginla's 30 goals under the cap this summer, are averaging just a single goal per game through four contests.
