Game 71 Recap: BRUINS 4 PENS 6 THINGS THAT MAKE YOU GO OOG

Well, that sucked.  Both the game and the fact that I was sick all day Sunday.  Anyhow, let's look at the game, because that's what we round these parts.


50 Seconds into the game, Bill Guerin.
0-1.  Damn, well that was fa-

Recchi says hello to his old team.
1-1.  16 seconds after the first goal.  Nice job, old man.

9 minutes later.  Bruins move it around the offensive zone, Wheeler passes to kessel while falling over, Kessel puts it in.
2-1.  Yay Kessel!  31 goals on the season.  That ties the most by a Bruin since the lockout (Bergeron in 05-06)

About 5 minutes later, the Bruins give up a powerplay, Chris Kunitz.
2-2.  All tied up after 1.

Halfway through the second, the Bruins give up another powerplay.  Brought to you by SuperCuts!  Wheeler and Krejci move up.  Krejci steals it, gives it to Wheeler, who pounds it past the goalie.
3-2.  Things are looking up in the steel city.

Gonchar (almost Kunitz)
3-3.

Kunitz
3-4.  Hats come raining down.  Suckers.

Bruins go on the Powerplay in the third and, well...Michael Ryder has an unreal shot.  Just simply unreal.  Watch this goal video.  You will not be dissapointed.  He doesn't even touch the bar, it's just perfectly placed in the top corner.  Perfectly.
4-4.  All tied up in the third, the Bruins are still in it...

Sykora
4-5.

Thomas goes to the bench.  Nesn now has one of those little "goalie-to-bench" PIP things.  I dig it.

So does Jordan Staal.
4-6.

Game.

Loss.

Bruins still haven't won on the road in a month.

vs. PIT: 2-1-1 (Season Series over)
Record: 45-17-9 (L 1)
Away: 21-11-4 (L 5)
L10: 4-5-1

GO BRUINS!
