Calgary Flames continue to impress the hockey world as they recorded their 5th straight win, with a 3-2 victory over the Bruins. The Bruins started the game well as Patrice Bergeron popped in the only goal in the first period, but the Bruins were killed by the Flames power play line as Dion Phaneuf, and Michael Cammalleri both scored in the 2nd while having a man advantage. Bruins, and Flames both scored, in the 3rd, but Boston just didn't have enough in the tank to tie the game. The Bruins really could use a goal scorer on this team. In the NHL today it is important to have a 30+ goal scorer, and I just don't think the Bruins have a player like that. What the Bruins do have is solid defense, and some play makers, but they lack the Brendan Shanahan's (from back in the day) of the world to just put the puck in the net. Bruins are now 5-3-3 on the season, which places them 5th in the Eastern Conference.
