Game Notes:
-
Told that Claude said the refs were doing a wonderful job, Michel Therrien bursts out laughing.
— Amalie Benjamin (@AmalieBenjamin) May 10, 2014 - The keys to the Bruins game today need to be the same as they've been for the first four: maintain possession, exploit the Douglas Murray pairing if he plays, DEPLOY MATT FRASER, and play like Carl. The third line's been the best this round, and as long as the Bruins can keep the Canadiens' top two lines contained, they should be okay.
- It's a best of three starting now, and the Bruins have re-taken home ice advantage. At this point, it's their series to lose.

Extra Skater Stats Preview
Lots of red circles in that Habs chart....take note of those dark blue circles for Soderberg and Eriksson. They're taking a high percentage of offensive zone faceoffs against low-level competition, and they're eating it up. Great success!
