B Squad Comes Up Empty


The Bruin's B team came up short against the Devils last night, lossing what was surely an emotional game for coach Julien 3-0.
Manny Fernandez made his Bruins debut giving way to Tuuka Rask at the halfway point. Fernandez gave up one goal on 15 shots, Rask allowed 2 goals on 19 shots.

The highlight of the night for Bruin's fans was the Jeremy Reich / David Clarkson street brawl. Clarkson took an early upper hand landing several hard shots, but Reich remained on his skates, landed some heavy punches and ended up sending Clarkson to the dressing room bleeding from his temple.
It's only Pre-Season, we sure seem to be carrying on with the we may loose the game but your going to bleed to win attitude that has been dormant in Boston for years, worst case scenario for this year is we go down swinging.

Pre-Season Starts off with a win

The Bruin's started the preseason off with a 3-1 win over the NY Islanders in Newfoundland Canada last night.
The squad was split, with this group having a little more muscle meaning the likes of Murray, Kessel, Bergeron were left in Beantown.
The boys threw down four times last night in an attempt to show the fans that they refuse to be walked on as they did last year.
Hat's off to the Big Z for throwing down for the first time as a Bruin. He looked as if he wanted to throw down with the Isles resident weassel Chris Simon, but Simon knew better and ensured he jawed from a distance until Isle new commer Kip Brennan. Chara left the game after the fight with a cut on his right hand.... nothing like breaking your hand on someone's face (OK so it was his helmet, but face sounds so much better.)
