Hey, morning all!
The Bruins are undefeated in the past three days! Amazing, right? No. No. Don't burst this bubble. Yes, I know what I'm saying and what it actually means. I'm still enjoying this win. Shush.
Later this evening, the Bruins will actually try to create a winning/undefeated in regulation streak when they take on the Arizona Coyotes and Milton's own Keith Yandle. (I guess after hearing all these Shock The World trades with him involved over the years, I'm still not quite used to him being a New York Ranger.)
Mike Smith, Mr. Butt Goal himself, has won three out of four games he started in for the Coyotes, already has one shutout and a GAA of 1.45. BUTT (heh heh) he was pulled the last game he played in, so maybe he really is crashing down to earth. Or we'll get Anders Lindback. Anything could happen, really! Make sure you have plenty of coffee for tonight, as the game will start at the heinous hour (for YOU, ha ha!) of 10 p.m.
