Recap Notes: A rare thing happened tonight, Bruins came back from being down to actually win, keeping their Loss-Win-Loss-Win pattern intact. The first period amounted to a tennis match on ice for the most part, which isn't nearly as awesome as you might think. In fact, at times I felt like standing up and cheering just for a shot on net...by either team. Oh yeah, and Jerred Smithson score for the sexual Predators.

The second period gave us more action with Ryder getting a goal within the first minute, kudos to Marchand for getting an assist in his first NHL game. Colin Wilson got credited with a goal for the online Predators after stuffing in a puck that popped over the head of Thomas. The tying goal came from Bergeron after jamming the puck past the post and Ellis on a rebound from Chara.

Begin got the game winner in the 3rd on an assist from newly acquired Daniel Paille. Despite some good chances, the child Predators couldn't answer back.

If nothing else, this game was a moral boost for the Bruins; now they (and we) see that they can win without two of their poster players Savard and Lucic. Wideman came back today and missed the net a lot...so he's back to normal. Overall, a win's a win and they'll be looking to carry this momentum with them tomorrow in their game against that inferior Pennsylvania team...
