Recap of Bruins/Maple Leafs and Bruins/Flyers

I hope everyone saw the game on Saturday because it was intense. The final score was 7-5 and Coach Julien had a few things to say:

“We’ve got our own issues. Just because we’re in a playoff spot doesn’t mean that everything’s OK. Our play in the last month and a half hasn’t been up to par. We need to get better in our game…So those games do mean something for us. It’s about fine-tuning ourselves and getting some momentum heading into the playoffs.”

Manny Fernandez, who let in 5 Toronto goals, tried to be optimistic where other players may blame the five day rest period (and even longer for Fernandez) for the lack of a defensive edge:

“You want to take that positively. Playoffs are around the corner. I think at that point it would be a good time to have maybe five days off and maybe rest a little bit. We’ve been hoping to turn things around and that’s the direction we’re trying to take.”

I applaud you Manny, even though you must have been praying for a good offensive line after Toronto answered every Boston goal in the first period, mostly by flukes and errors.

Goals of the night:

• Boston: Mark Recchi had two, Chuck Kobasew, Shawn Thornton, David Krejci, Michael Ryder and Blake Wheeler all had one apiece
• Toronto: Ponikarovsky had two for the Leafs while Mitchell, Hagman, and Kulemin had one each

As for the Flyers game yesterday, a late goal by Philly’s Gagne in the third (to make it 4-3 with a minute and a half to go) made for a stressful exciting end to an important win for the B’s. Now they’re seven points up with only seven games to go.
