Bruins 4 - Leafs 2


The Boston Bruins officially eliminated the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday night courtesy of a non-offsides call by a linesman. The missed call lead to a quick breakaway where sophomore Phil Kessel did the business to goaltender Vesa Toskala. From there, the snowball continued to roll down hill as the Bruins jumped into a tie for 7th place and stayed two points ahead of Washington who beat Tampa Bay in overtime. The Bruins received contributions from everyone tonight, including a game winning goal by Glen Murray and a late goal by a stranger to the line-up, Peter Schaeffer, who brought the lead back to two goals to finish off the Leafs. Tim Thomas did what he had to do to help this team win and the Bruins put the puck in the net to assist the goaltender's efforts. Look out Ottawa, the Bruins remembered how to score!

Just think.. Kessel actually has a shot for a 20 goal season. Let's hope so (for the team's sake).

A great game...going to watch it again. Scoring and winning is contageous and they should start a nice run this week, wins over Ottawa, Buffalo heading right into the playoffs and thinking about number 1 seed whoevere it might be. Everyone is clicking - Krejci is playing amazing!!

If these past two games don't get you excited for the youth in the B's organization...check your pulse. Lucic the well deserved 7th man, finally Kessel finds the net, and my god is Krejci really a rookie, he's playing with the patience and intelligence of a vet!
I'm going to the game tomorrow! If they show some nut going WILD for the B's, that'll be me!
