Nice GDT.

Bergy is so damn cute.

I will be missing part of the game as I have to go out tonight.

HERE WE GO BRUINS...HERE WE GO :handclap::handclap:

I hate Carolina. Hope this is the last time I see E Staal dive in a Canes uniform.

Interesting lines today on D.
#NHLBruins D Pairs:
Chara-McQuaid
Krug-Seidenberg
Morrow-Miller
Trotman

I've said since the beginning of the year that McQuaid has been worth his money. K. Miller should be on a bottom pairing where he's up against crap lines. No way should Chara have to babysit him against the other team's best. McQuaid is good enough in his own end to free an aging, but still effective, Chara to do his thing. And I thought Z played one of his best games against the Pens after Claude put him with McQuaid.

TONIGHT’S GAME

- The Bruins visit the Hurricanes tonight in the 1st of 3 games between these teams this season and Bruins’ lone visit of the season to PNC Arena … The Bruins are 33-22-6 overall and are 20-7-3 on the road … They are 11-5-1 vs. Metropolitan Division teams and are 25-12-3 vs. Eastern Conference opponents.

MILESTONES APPROACHING
- Patrice Bergeron is expected to play his 800th NHL/Bruins game tonight.

- Coach Claude Julien is 3 wins short of tying Art Ross as Boston’s all-time coaching wins leader at 387 regular season victories.

BOSTON vs CAROLINA, LIFETIME SERIES





- The Bruins and Hurricanes are meeting for the 192nd time in their franchise histories (includes Carolina as Hartford) with the Bruins having a 102-70-16-3 record and 650-556 scoring advantage in those games.

- The Bruins are 46-38-9-2 in their 95 road games of this lifetime series with a 320-306 scoring edge in those contests.

- The Bruins are 5-0-1 in their last 6 games vs. the Hurricanes with their last regulation loss to Carolina a 4-2 setback in Carolina on Apr. 13, 2013, and they are 18-7-1 in their last 26 games vs. the Hurricanes overall … They are 2-0-1 in their last 3 visits to Raleigh and are 9-4-1 in their last 14 road games of this lifetime series.

Fun Facts: The Bruins are 32-29-3-3 vs. Carolina since they relocated from Hartford at the start of the 1997-98 season and are 19-11-
2-2 in Raleigh in that span … Neither of these teams has shut out the other in Raleigh with the last road shutout by Boston a 3-0 Bill
Ranford win on Feb. 14, 1996 and last home blanking by Carolina a 2-0 Sean Burke victory on Apr. 13, 1996.

NUMBERS

0: Power play opportunities for Boston in their last game Wednesday vs. PIT … It was the 3rd game this season in which they have not had a power play chance (Dec. 22 vs STL, Jan. 21 vs VAN).

1: Loui Eriksson is the lone Bruin to play in all 61 games this season … Boston is the only team with just 1 player to appear in each of
his team’s games.

Beauty GDT, 800 for Patrice, it seems just like yesterday he was a kid playing in his first game.

That blonde flow is just hilarious, it reminds me of high school when kids would dye their hair some weird colour and smoke pot up in the chip trail, ahhh the 90s what a glorious time it was.

Go Bruins!!

I always forget Carolina is still a team.

4-2 Bruins.
Krug, Bergeron, Spooner and Rinaldo

You can't take away the Whalercanes. Out of all the places my wife and I could have moved, Raleigh hosting 1-2 Bruins a game a year is what tipped the scales in favor of this place.

I like the 4-2 prediction, but I'll go with Marchand(2), Eriksson, and Pasta.

Great GDT Ali!
It has been a blast watching Bergy grow up as a Bruin. Amazing player and one of the all time classy guys; great role model for the rest of the B's.

Now just get the win.

800 games, jeez... So glad he's been here for every one and hopefully he'll be here for the rest of them.

Yep, 13 years and he's still finding ways to get better. It's a damn shame that he's lost about 250 games to injuries and lockouts.

He looks like an old man in that draft photo. And blonde hair is just not a good look, at least he is wearing his helmet there! Kind of neat for his dad to be there for his 800th game. If they win again they need to keep the dads with them the rest of the season.

I don't remember the blond hair but I do remember him playing for the Baby Bruins during the lockout. The gap between him and his AHL teammates was ginormous, and he was very young himself at the time.

He needs to bring the bleach-blonde look back. Just to freak everyone out. Oh, and a hatty for Bergy tonight, just because.
