No Need to Worry

"it's only game 1," said everyone today. This series is off to a brutal  start and set the tone for a relentless series of games.

I'd say the teams are pretty evenly matched seeing as how Chicago's about as lucky as the Bruins are unlucky.

I would NEVER say the Hawks out played the Bruins in that game. I think that Boston looked to be the better team, and I think they had A LOT,,no that's not enough... They had A MEGA TON of chance to win that game and could not capitalize on their chances.

It only takes one scoring chance to win, even if it takes a third OT to get it.

So the Blackhawks took game 1 in Chicago, no big deal there's a whole lot of hockey left.

If you are a Bruins fan, and you are worried let me try to ease that worry.

Lets go back a bit to that goal that made it 3-2

Tory Krug, (rookie) makes a bad pass to the middle of the ice, it is intercepted and then brought in to the zone and one-timered for a goal...

I can guarantee you a nice college boy like Krug will probably never ever make that mistake again in his career. so there you go Chicago, there's one on the house. You're welcome. 

The tying goal, "oh hey johny Oduya, this is Andrew Ference's skate, let me help you out with that tying goal, you'll just owe me own." That's how the game gets tied, and then never ends.

Now lets talk about those Bruins forwards shall we. So Nathan Horton, you clearly weren't feeling you best out there, so maybe you're good chance at the net is forgivable.

Lucic, buddy, you were under pressure looking for the hat trick, we understand you're chance going by it's alright we are still in this.

Seguin i don't really have an excuse for your miss except the whole bounce didn't go your way thing

The only real blame I think to put on a Bruins forward is Mr. Daugavins. That last really good chance the Bruins had, you made one move to many, that was a nice chance for a simple redirect, no need to go to the back hand like that.

As I said before, the game was close. The Bruins were only +2 in face offs, the hits were pretty equal, and there were not a lot of penalties and in a series between two teams who take pride in their penalty kill the Bruins scored the only PP goal and both teams had 3 power plays.

In game 2 I think we will see more of the same both teams will spend a lot of time in their offensive zones, there will be a lot of hits and broken up plays, and maybe the bounces will go the way of the black and yellow, black and yellow, black and yellow.
