Game Preview:
After a thorough dunking on of the Canucks, the Bruins are back on the road to take on the Blackhawks, who have been improving since the turn of the new year, but are still well out of the central division race. The ‘Hawks are 6-4-0 in their last ten, and have been getting good at keeping games close, sometimes to their detriment, as they just yesterday got beat in a game they had to crawl back into against the Minnesota Wild. The same Wild that the B’s just vivisected alive on television.
So yeah. Expect them to be quite motivated.
Back-to-backs aren’t always fun, especially for a team now on not a whole lot of rest, but let’s see if the B’s can get their next big win!
