Andrew Ference and The Enviromnent

Whatta guy.

Not only a puck-moving defenseman, but also carbon-neutral, worm-composting, rooting-tooting environmentalist!

He was the guy who whispered in Chara's ear about hustling the other players out of money for his Chara-ty slapshot.


I heard that my comments weren't working quite right, so I changed them back.  Leave a comment if it works!

Game 39 Recap: BRUINS 2 BUF 4 HAD TO HAPPEN EVENTUALLY

They say you can't win 'em all. The Bruins didn't. Here's how:

Matt Ellis and Thomas Vanek scored in the first 6 minutes. Kessel responded when Savard gave it to him on the powerplay:

1-2. You're holding out hope for a lot more Bruins scoring, or for the Buffalo defense to be less suffocating.

Matt Ellis scores again to start the second. Shawn Thornton responds with a kick fake and wrister from the point:

2-3. A pretty goal by Thornton. You're thinking there's still a lot of hockey left, but that bad feeling is gnawing at you.

Paul Gaustad scores. 2-4.

The third period is better because Buffalo doesn't score. The Bruins fail to score, as well.

Game.

Loss.

It was bound to happen eventually.

Record: 29-6-4
Home: 14-2-1
L10: 9-1-0
January: 1-1-0
vs. BUF 2-2-1
GO BRUINS!

It's official: Third Jerseys are here.



Here's the pdf linked to by BruinsBlog.  The official unveiling is at the Pro Shop today at 2pm.

My thoughts are...  there are two many black jerseys in the NHL already.  Throwbacks would be cool, but there the bruins have like 3 choices:  The hand-done spoked-B (no reason), just the big B, the way old-school one they're sending up in this one, or this fine item: 
Picture from NHL Uniforms, an absolutely FANTASTIC place to find out what every team was wearing every season.  Seriously, it's ridiculous.  Oh look, they already have the third jersey.


There, I said it.  Deal with it.

GO BRUINS!
