The Boston Bruins have fallen behind 3 games to none vs. the Flyers in this years 2nd round playoff matchup. Two overtime losses and one unfortunate loss that saw Jason Allison injured for part of the game have left the Bruins in a tight spot going into game 4. It is a must win situation. Every game from here on in is a must win situation. However, contrary to the half-wit reports coming out of Philedelphia, the fans and the media are behind the team.

"We're a solid team and the fans and media have shown nothing but 100% support in the playoffs. Some reporters in Philly might be trying to stir the pot for the sake of rallying the fans down there but we really couldn't care less. Our fans don't need to be fed crack-tales from the media to make sure they get out and support the team." stated GM Krueger. Coach Burns later said, "They've got a very good team, with an excellent coach and goaltender. Our team may be less experienced, particularely in goal, but our work ethic is excecellent and they will not give up. The guys have played exceptionally well all year, and like the Blues in the first round of the playoffs, just have not had any good breaks or bounces after three games in this series. They've scored 2 lucky overtime goals. Could have just as easily gone the other way. However, it isn't over - and we'll battle back. I've coached teams that have battled back from tight spots before and I believe this team can do the same - they're a great bunch of players who have a hearty desire to win. And we will win."
