Leaving Washington with a point in their pockets, the Bruins host the Avalanche tonight at 7:00PM on NESN.
For those who gave up watching at the 3-0 point in the game, you missed a great little comeback. The Boston Globe
What’s the point of giving up with half a game left to be played? Who cares if it is the Capitals? The Bruins just kept coming. Boston Herald
The Bruins need goals to win, and lots are coming from David Pastrnak. Claude Julien pointedly preaches finishing off at the net and jumping on loose pucks. The Boston Globe
Take five... observations from the game. Anton Blidh earned a point, and came justhtisclose to his first NHL goal, but Dominic Moore did the wise thing by batting the dribbling puck home. Can’t be taking chances. WEEI
The Bruins mopped up their own mess, but the Department of Player Safety will have their work cut out for them- at three different points in the game there were hits that may merit scrutiny. Bruins Daily
The high point tonight for the Avalanche may be the return of Gabriel Landeskog (flu) to the lineup, they’re riding a six game losing streak- here’s a preview of tonight’s game. Mile High Hockey
Devan Dubnyk (who offered encouragement to Malcolm Subban) reached a rock-bottom point in his career and has since put it in his rear-view mirror. ESPN

Former Bruin Chris Kelly was just not in the mood to sit on the bench through overtime against the Sharks, apparently. @JeffViellette
