Live game updates: Canadiens vs Bruins game 6

The Bruins-Canadiens game has started. The Bruins have the same lineup as game 5 except Aaron Ward is back and Andrew Alberts is out. For Montreal, Saku Koivu, Francis Bouillon and Mark Streit are in the lineup. I will continue to post updates throughout the game in this post. Stay tuned!

Update at 7:19pm
Very physical early as both teams are finishing their checks.

Update at 7:26pm
Phil Kessel and Steve Begin get minors. Kessel for slashing and Begin for Montreal's specialty diving.

Update at 7:28pm
Montreal's Chris Higgins scores off a faceoff win as he goes to the net and beats Thomas. 1-0 Montreal.

Update at 7:40pm
Sergei Kostitsyn dives and Mark Stuart gets called for tripping. Montreal as a power-play.

Update at 7:49pm
The first period has ended and there was a scrum at the end of the first as Mike Komisarek and Marc Savard were the first two getting into it. Then Zdeno Chara came in and started messing with someone else. Chara and Steve Begin received 2 minutes each for roughing. Not a good tradeoff for Boston. All good playoff action.

Update at 8:07pm
It's the second period and Phil Kessel just scored a beautiful goal with a sweet deke between Bouillon's legs and shooting the puck past Carey Price. What a goal! It's tied 1-1 now.

Update at 8:14pm
Milan Lucic drew a tripping penalty and the Bruins have a power-play.

Update at 8:18pm
Tomas Plekanec came out of the penalty box after his penalty and received a nice pass for a breakaway and he scored on Thomas. It's now 2-1 Montreal.

Update at 9:11pm
Sorry for being late updating this. It's now the third period. Marc Savard got hooked but no call. Then Vladimir Sobotka scored to tie the game 2-2. Andrew Ference then got called for an interference penalty, where the Montreal player looked to go down easily. No call on Montreal, but Boston gets called for a penalty, wow.

Update at 9:22pm
Montreal just scored to get the 3-2 lead with less than ten minutes left in the game. Francis Bouillon should get the goal I believe.

Update at 9:27pm
Milan Lucic just scored by redirecting an Aaron Ward slap shot. That is Lucic's second goal in the playoffs. It's now 3-3 and there are seven minutes left in the game.

Update at 9:38pm
Wow! Phil Kessel with his second goal of the game as he shot it high and over Price. He received a sweet pass from Marco Sturm. The very next shift Montreal's Chris Higgins scores to tie the game. It's now tied 4-4.

Update at 9:41pm
Marco Sturm scores and it's now 5-4 Bruins with the lead.

Update at 9:47pm
The Bruins have won game 6 and force a game 7 to be played on Monday at Montreal.
