Game 8: Bruins 4, Senators 0

The Good
  • Tim Thomas Do I even have to write anything?
  • B's Youth Movement The Bruins certainly do have a decent amount of depth in their system, as they have a couple of skilled youngsters on the team right now and a number of them waiting in the wings in Providence. The youth movement was on full display in Ottawa, as Jordan Caron and Tyler Seguin, the B's two brightest rookies, both scored in the 4-0 win. Caron showed great skill on his breakaway goal, and Seguin turned on the jets and burnt past two Sens defenders to score a power play goal on a beautiful pass from Mark Recchi. Seguin now has a goal in two-straight games. If these two freshmen continue to play like this, the future will be now for the B's, not later.
  • Penalty Kill The B's were perfect on the penalty kill again, killing all three of Ottawa's power play chances. The Bruin PK ranks first in the NHL with a 93.1% success rate.
  • Big Money Seids Strikes Again! Another solid game from Seidenberg, who got in a late scrap with Chris Neil and recorded an assist. Big Money Seids now has three assists in the last three games and eleven blocked shots in the last two.

The Bad
  • Marchand Might Never Score The poor kid just can't seem to bury one, despite having a number of great chances. This isn't really bad, but I needed something to complain about, right? It's getting almost comical. But the thought here is that Marchand will get of the schnide soon, and will have an epic goal celebration when he does.

The Rest

Attaboy: Tim Thomas. Again.

Providence shuttle: Halloween parties that start at 9. I had to miss most of the third period. Good thing it was a blowout.
