1st of huge back to back games, Bruins need to come out buzzing, the devils have been faltering losing 4 in a row and 9 out of 11. Hit them hard and often, dont let up and come away with a W!

 

[quietbruinfan]

Terrible speed mismatch, desperate Devils, and Gord Dwyer, What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Blowfish]

Every game counts. Get healthy and let’s catch them leafosers.

Another big game, the Devils are definitely struggling so hopefully the B's can take advantage. Hoping for the best with a win in regulation and maybe a few extra goals to chip away at the goal differential.

GO BRUINS!!!!!!

Well... teams in the middle of a slump have enjoyed succes getting out of them this year by playing us.
Hopefully this is not the case this game.

[AngryMilkcrates]

Sling used to have NHL network and a free trial, not sure anymore.

The Bruins are just what the Doctor order for the slumping Devils.

 

[PlayMakers]

Trap game with them playing Ottawa tomorrow. Hopefully they stay focused on the task at hand.

Still do. I ended up getting the sub to it just for the NHLN games they steal (after I burned up a couple free trials lol). I hate paying for it since I already have Hulu, but that's fandom I guess.

Vinny hurt?

 

[BB79]

Devils have struggled a bit with scoring, they haven't scored more than 3 goals in a game since December 27th. Bruins missing Mac and Lindholm. Interesting match up

 

[Ladyfan]

I hope the Bruins bring it tonight.

Hey Steve, I hope the Bruins win tonight.

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO
