Last night, the Bruins beat Buffalo 7-4 to make them 8-1-1 in their last 10 games. So, the question has to be asked...is it time to take this team seriously? Kessel is turning into a scoring machine (9 goals this season), and Savard continues to collect points (25 points). The Bruins have also been extremely good on defense as Chara has been leading the way. At the beginning of the season, I thought the Bruins would be nothing more then a couple games over .500, and they would win most of their games with their defense. Instead, they have been putting up points to go along with their above average defensive play. The combo of Manny Fernandez, and Tim Thomas seems like it is going to work for the entire season. If that is the case, and the Bruins can keep improving their young stars (Bergeron, Kessel, Lucic, ect) they could really have a good shot at winning the East this year. The question is (just like all Bruins teams for the last 30 years)...will they be able to do it in the playoffs?
