Bruins forechecking tonight was superb. The B's took a page out of Montreal's game plan from games 1 & 2 of the series. Marchand, Peverley and Campell continuously forced the Hab's D-men to play shaky in their own zone and make bad decisions. The Bruins pounced on them early and took the momentum for the rest of the first period. Top line of Krejci, Horton and Lucic played like beast and great puck possession and scoring chances throughout the entire game. Thomas continues to play stellar one minute and let up soft goals the next. With that said, he was HUGE in the last 6 minutes of the 3rd period. HUGE.
Heading into game 4 I want Tyler Seguin in for Ryder. Ryder is giving the Bruins nothing right now. The power play needs a spark. Perhaps the rookie can provide a boost.
Andrew Ference often plays under the radar for this team. But make no mistake about it. If a teammate is in trouble and needs back up #21 is the first to arrive and back that player up. Great showing by the Bruins tonight. Thursday night we will see if they can completely climb back out of this hole.
