As NESN's Jack Edwards said at the end of the game, the Bruins had a backwards type of game where they started the game strong and ended it bad. If it wasn't for Tim Thomas the Capitals would have won Saturday night's game. But Thomas came up big, making 39 saves on 41 shots and the Bruins won 3-2. The Bruins scored their three goals all in the first period. Patrice Bergeron scored his 6th goal, Andrew Ference scored his 1st goal, and Blake Wheeler scored his 8th goal. The Bruins managed to survive the third period as the Capitals completely outplayed them. The Capitals had 26 shots alone in the third period, that's how bad it was.
Brad Marchand did not finish the game and is day-to-day. Tim Thomas is now 15-3-3, with a 1.65 GAA, and a .951 save percentage. Adam McQuaid got into a good fight against Capitals Matt Bradley. Another decision for McQuaid, who is gaining a reputation around the league as one tough guy.
The Bruins next game is on Monday against the Anaheim Ducks in Boston.
