This is going to be a great matinee game to kick off the series. I only hope bringing Savard back at this point doesn't disrupt the chemistry that the team has finally started building on the stretch run. Let's go Bruins!!!
Yeah, couldn't have a much better first game back than that. His ice time was pretty limited too, should only get better and better as the series goes on. It was nice to see Pittsburgh lose last night, with any luck the B's will advance and so will the Canadiens!

What a game!
It's not totally inconceivable that the Bruins might make the Cup. Just sayin'.
I agree with you completely! I don't think many people saw this coming just a few months back.
Yeah, I think Savard's return worked out pretty well, don't you?
Yeah, couldn't have a much better first game back than that. His ice time was pretty limited too, should only get better and better as the series goes on. It was nice to see Pittsburgh lose last night, with any luck the B's will advance and so will the Canadiens!
