For the second year in a row, the Bruins find themselves up 3-0 against the Philadelphia Flyers. Unlike last year, the Bruins looked to rewrite history and not lose control of this series. In series, when the Bruins are up 3-0, they are 16-1. Unfortunately, we know what that one loss is from. In-Game Three, the Bruins were finally able to … Keep Reading

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.

Game seven is here, and the tension couldn’t be any higher. The winner would move on, while the loser would watch the rest of the playoffs from home.

Leading the series 3-2, the Bruins went into the Bell Centre looking to clinch the series and send Montreal back to their couches. The Bruins could make history tonight if they won game 6.
