Game 1: Bruins @ Avalanche

Game 1: Bruins @ Avalanche

Oct 9, 2008, 10:20 PM ET

On TV:  Versus (HD unless Golf is showing instead...don't let us down, VS.)

On the Radio:  WBZ 1030

Notes:

• Tim Thomas v. Peter Budaj in nets, probably.  Thomas tried out for Colorado a long time ago, and didn't get in.  Budaj didn't get many starts behind Jose Theodore, but he's being given the keys to the net this year, with Bruins and Maple Leafs washout Andrew Raycroft. (Seen above)
• Joe Sakic hates the Red Sox.  He's also been playing hockey almost as long as I've been alive.  Nothing personal, but him pulling a Chris Chelios would be nice.
• Fluto's got the possible lineup for the Bruins.  And the Avalanche, for that matter.
• The game is starting even later because the Avs are honoring some Hall of Famers, including Cammi Granato.
• Other GameDay items: JumboTron, Boston.com, The Bruins Report, WickedBruinsFan, Bruins Nation, hubhockey, and I'm sure others will be forthcoming.  If I missed one, let me know and I'll throw you on.
• This kid is 60 and in mastercard commercials.  We need another one like the one he's got there.  Go get em, B's.

GO BRUINS!
