Bruins and Canadiens meet again tonight

Tonight at 7:30pm the Bruins and Canadiens will play the second game of their home-and-home series at the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston. The Bruins lost 1-0 on Tuesday and need to win tonight in order to have any chance of making the playoffs. It looks like both teams will have the same lineups as on Tuesday, but there could be late changes.

After the game on Tuesday Bruins' defenseman Andrew Ference was not happy at all and had some interesting comments. Ference's comments from a BostonHerald.com article:

"Coming off of New York ... the next game has to be a real show of character," Ference said. "And I think you'd expect to see more guys (ticked) off, more guys with an edge. Systems-wise, it was great. We were in the right spot and did a lot of the right things. But the parts of the game that are played with emotion - driving the net, getting your nose dirty, and the guys away from the puck making sure they have their feet moving, and going through defensemen instead of around them ... there wasn't enough of that. That's the disappointing part of a game like that."
It's good to see that one guy gets it, but the whole Bruins team needs to feel this way and be like Ference if they will ever be a team.
