vs. Toronto Maple Leafs (19-32-11)

There are a lot of people angry about Chiarelli not making enough moves, or making too many, or not going for the cup this year, or not blowing the team up completely.

Whatever, this is the team we've got. I'm not the GM and I doubt you are either (If you are, hello Peter! I hope you're enjoying this!) so we can rant and rave and whatever, but really there isn't much you can do about it except cry into your pillow at night.

This ain't the year.

Anyhow, let's look at the new kid:

Crushing a hab? Check.


Sniping from the blue-line? Check.

Really he should hopefully be at least as good as derrick morris, I'm hoping, maybe, please please I want to see a win before the year is out dammit.

Hey, could be worse. Could be Edmonton. Or Calgary. Or Toronto....who we're playing tonight.

News:
Tuukka is out day to day with lower body injury, Bergeron is sitting with a tweaked groin, Matthew "who?" Dalton will be backing up Thomas and Dany Sabourin is on re-entry waivers from Providence.

Welp.
If the Bruins don't win at home tonight, they'll have to wait until March 18th to try again.

Stats!

GO BRUINS!

Game 61: Bruins vs. Habs GAME ON

Game 61
7:00 PM ET March 2, 2010
NESN, 98.5 FM
vs. Habs (29-28-6)

Well, the Olympics are over and what a games they were. I found out Curling owns and that team USA is actually pretty alright as it turns out. Also, this man:
Is a true American hero, and easily the best player of the tourney. Hell of a final, to boot. Oh well, back to the NHL grind!

Trade deadline is tomorrow at 3pm, Bruins will likely make some move but...To be honest they're worse, in terms of points accumulated after 60 games, than the 08 team that barely squeaked into the playoffs. It's not like they're out or anything, they're just not doing as well.

Stats!

Montreal is one team apart from Boston in pretty much everything I looked at, and below at that! Their powerplay is dangerous, though, nearly at 25% conversion, good for second in the league. Here's the rest of the stats:

The NHL is back, baby!
GO BRUINS!

Gold Medal Game: USA vs. Canada OH MAMA DON'T YOU CRY

Today's preview is brought to you in youtube form, because who doesn't mail in a preview of a matinee game?

First, a word from our dirty communist neighbors to the north:


Next up, and far more important:


And here's hoping we see more of this:


We've seen these teams play before, a week ago. Huge game. Team USA is officially the home team, so they should be using last shift to their advantage as much as possible.

Go out there and take it.
USA! USA! USA!
