Returning back to home ice, the Bruins had a commanding 2-0 lead over the Flyers and looked to make it 3-0. It was uncertain if Adam McQuaid would be in the lineup, as in Game two, he was diagnosed with a sprained neck injury.

After a round one for the ages, the Boston Bruins carried the momentum into a second-round rematch with the Philadelphia Flyers. The brutal playoff exit from last year still left a sour taste in the Bruin’s mouth, and they looked to exorcise the demons from last year. Losing a series is one thing, but losing one after being up 3-0 is … Keep Reading
