This was a tough loss to the Bruins, on Wednesday night. New York aka The Blue Shirts got an early lead in the first period by 2 goals from Marian Gaborick. After that, the Bruins responded with 2 goals from Brad Marchand and Milan Lucic. The Rangers would score yet again, giving them the lead at 3-2. Then, Nathan Horton gets the puck and snipes, and scores! The game would be tied at 3-3. Towards the final minute of the game, New York was getting the puck A LOT, and the Bruins goalie, Tuukka Rask was making AMAZING saves. TUUKKA TIME! Rask would send this game into overtime. Sadly, as over time started, Marian Gaborick would get a break a way and score, giving him the over time winner goal and a hat trick. Even though Rask made the save, the puck popped up and Gaborick took another shot and hit the puck in. Let's look at the stats.
Tuukka Rask: 29 out of 33 Shots Saved
Gregory Campbell: 1 Assist
Milan Lucic: 1 Goal
Nathan Horton: 1 Goal
Dougie Hamilton: 1 Assist (First Point of NHL Career)
Zdeno Chara: 1 Assist, 3 Hits
David Krejci: 1 Assist, 1 Hit
Rich Peverley: 1 Assist, 1 Hit
Adam McQuaid: 4 Hits
Boston defense rookie Dougie Hamilton, got his first NHL point of his career this game off an assist from Marchand. He originally took the shot but Marchand tipped it and scored. Anyways, even if the Bruins lost, they played a great game, and so did Rask. Next up we face the Islanders. Will the Bruins use their backup goalie against the Islanders Friday? What do you think?
