Injuries suck but i bet Carlo will suit up at some point... and i do feel that this is a winnable series...

It's nice being underdogs though and just hope our vets can step up... bergy/chara/rask/backes/Marchand

....don't forget Krejčí.

If he would step it up, it could make a big difference in this series.

 

[774EVER]

Feels like Christmas Eve.

I don't know what is going to happen from here, it could wind up being a disaster of a series or the exact opposite. I don't really have any expectations.

I'm just glad the B's are back at the dance.

 

[Pia8988]

Excited to see McAvoy play. Hope the vets can step up and make up for the injuries.

 

[Coors9]

Ok boys, let's go out and kick some ass.

 

[LouJersey]

We've been waiting a long time for this. I'm expecting tight hockey and some late night OTs.

 

[Flannelman]

Love to see them solve Anderson, crash that net hard boys

 

[Blowfish]

Go Tenkrat!

 

[pgm16]

Today is the day..... 3 - 2 OT win for our Bruins

 

[Pia8988]

Of the Sens, I'm very interested in seeing Karlsson. He threw some big hits 2 years ago against Montreal that you don't see him do in the regular season.

I have seen on the main board Sens fans saying that he will be playing "on one leg". I hope so.

 

[HockeyMomx2]

Sens board reads as though the Bruins are a group of Bantams about to beat down by Boro every shift. Apparently the Sens are so amazing it's just a matter of 'when' they win the series.

 

[TP]

To quote an old friend...


Longest day ever!!!!

 

[Jean_Jacket41]

LOL. Love this video.

Awesome.

Let's grab a 1-0 lead tonight than do that the rest of the game. They weren't even forechecking down 1-0.

Go Bruins!

I hope so as well because it will improve their chances. But I love me some playoff hockey. Bring on the carnage.

 

[Ladyfan]

This'll be a bittersweet series for me, I have a big soft spot for the B's. If you guys win the series I'll be cheering for you to go all the way. <3

I have always liked the Sens too and remember you as a friend to the B's during other playoffs.

I don't like Burrows...

[DarrenBanks56]

[KrejciMVP]

[Fopppa]

Great to finally have some playoff hockey back! 4-1 good guys, Marchy with a pair.

 

[TP]

Jeeze.. You guys and your 4 goals against a trap and Anderson?


2-1 Ottawa

His down playoffs scoring wise in 2014 probably had a lot to do with the torn tendons in his elbow.

http://causewaycrowd.com/2015/09/01/boston-bruins-brad-marchand-surgery-offseason/

Left winger Brad Marchand reportedly underwent elbow surgery this offseason to repair torn tendons in his right elbow which had pestered the forward towards the latter stages of the 2014 season.

“There were days where I couldn’t even hold my stick,†Marchand told NHL.com. “It was always tough to shoot. There’d be times throughout the year where it was good. But when it was bad it was tough to even … like I wasn’t shooting in practice and stuff like that. So it definitely affected my game a bit. So it was good to get it doneâ€.

“It wasn’t as bad throughout [2014-15] as it was before the [2014] playoffs,†Marchand said. “But it definitely still bothered me at times.
