Preview:

I'm just going to assume Dennis Seidenberg is never ever coming back ever, maybe he actually will come back if I write the opposite about him.

Bruins again have an opportunity to close out this series. They haven't won a series in five games in a really long time. The Rangers didn't play particularly well last game -- the Bruins just made a bunch of dumb mistakes -- if they focus and play as well as they did in games 1-3, they've got this.

5:30 start time is weird. Let's get it done.
