by Jack Edwards via twitter 4/20/2014 7:21:51 PMChara drilling it into the corner on first shift is what the Bruins do NOT want to do today: easy retrieval, easy out for DET.
-
by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 4/20/2014 7:23:01 PMKevan Miller makes his playoff debut with, well, a bang. Big hit on Drew Miller.

-
by Jack Edwards via twitter 4/20/2014 7:23:34 PMInteresting threshold for holding as Thornton goes. Compare with Jurco not getting called on Krejci in Game 1.

-
