THE GERMAN RETURNS TO THE GARDEN

Having precisely removed the locker room cancer that is phil kessel (la la la I can't hear you, 36 goals, la la la) the Bruins are moving on with the season, and today is the first home preseason game. I'm super pumped. It's against the Rangers. Here's the lineup according to the Bruins Blog:

Goaltenders: Tim Thomas and Tuukka Rask
Defensemen: Johnny Boychuk, Drew Fata, Derek Morris, Jeff Penner, Mark Stuart and Dennis Wideman.
Forwards: Jamie Arniel, Steve Begin, Zach Hamill, Jeff LoVecchio, Milan Lucic, Kirk MacDonald, Michael Ryder, Max Sauve, Marc Savard, Marco Sturm, Shawn Thornton and Trent Whitfield.

So....Basically we're going to get to see some good players. And now you know to pick your Thomas jersey over your Chara one.

There might be a Game Day Thread over at Stanley Cup of Chowder, but tickets should be cheap enough you may as well just go.

oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man oh man HOCKEY IS BACK!!!!!!

GO BRUINS!
