Yesterday the Bruins lossed 2-1 to the Ducks in a well played game by both teams. The Bruins started the game strong hitting and playing physical. The Ducks didn't seem to start really playing and playing physical until the second period and seemed to take over the game from there. The Ducks' physical play caused the Bruins to make mistakes and maybe wear them down, as the Ducks took advantage. I don't know if anyone else brought up this point but at the end of game, coach Julien put out the Bruins' fourth line. I know the fourth line worked hard all night and played well, but when you need a goal I would think you would put out your best players. Also with Marc Savard out of the game, Brandon Bochenski was dressed but he didn't get one second of ice time. Does Julien have something against Bochenski or has Bochenski really disappointed Julien in practice? I know he doesn't play center but he could have got a rare shift on the wing at times in the game. Maybe we'll see him get some ice time in the next game if Savard is still hurt.
The next game for the Bruins is on Friday against the Los Angeles Kings. The Kings have a young team that the Bruins may be able to take advantage of. I think it will be a close game though. Marc Savard is still day-to-day and a decision will be made Friday morning if he'll play against the Kings or not.
