The Bruins get back to work tonight after the All-Star break. Boston hopes the break hasn't cooled them off at all, as they were 7-3 in their last 10 heading into the break, while Carolina is happy to have the first half over with, because right now they wouldn't even make the playoffs (1 point behind Atlanta for the last spot).
Actually there are a bunch of Bruins that hope the break doesn't mess up their mojo. Obviously Tim Thomas is having a year for the ages, but guys like Lucic and Bergeron have also been playing very well. The Bruins are going to need Bergeron (8 goals, 7 assists and a +13 rating in his last 11 games) to keep is going, because we have no idea when Savard could be back.
Boston is just a better team then Carolina, plus they are actually a better road team then a home team. I expect the Bruins to win easily tonight.
Bruins win 4-2
Player of the Game: Patrice Bergeron
