Might be the best chance the B`s have to secure 2 pts as it looks like the Duckies as banged up as the B`s are.

I`ll be long asleep before puck drop, something tells me with the lineups both teams putting out there, might be a stinker. B`s sink Ducks 3-2

Both of these teams are so plagued with injury it's ridiculous. Should be a good game though.

Why is Krejci a game time decision? If he's hurt, he's hurt.

If he's well enough to play, then play. No reason to cross your fingers the day of a game....

If we rush him back we'll loose him for much longer.

Taking a nap right when I get home tonight so I can stay up for this (hopefully).

I had a dream Monday night that we lost all 3 on the Cali trip, but then won the next 8. I'll take it!

Wow. I had no idea Anaheim was as injury-plagued as we are....and that's just counting their Ryans. There are more names I recognize on the injury list than on their forward list - granted, I'm a fairly myopic fan, and don't pay as much attention to other teams as I should, particularly in the WC. But...woof.

I think if we're going to get 3/6 points in California, our best chance is to pick up the full 2 here. None of the three teams will be rested, and Anaheim's apparently not been doing all that well. That combined with the hopeful return of Krejci...I think we have a chance, and I'll be disappointed if we don't win.

This team better get their act together.

Arizona, Buffalo, Florida and Edmonton are the only teams with less points.

5th worst team in the league.

Hitting a terrible part of the schedule for them to try to get it together, especially with all the injuries. I'll be shocked if things don't get ugly.

Trying to remember a worse lineup of starting forwards going back the nearly 50 years I've been a fan. Can't easily do it.
Some of those post-deadline lineups in 2006 were brutal.

This is an unfair amount of injuries on both sides. And I spent money on tickets to this game. The only time the Bruins come here all year too. So lame.

One time too many. Should be an every other year thing. Need to go back to the old schedule. Enough playing the W.C twice a year. Bruins should be playing division rivals more.

A pair of teams dealing with injuries and uneven play meet Wednesday night at Honda Center.

The Boston Bruins (6-6-4) are coming off consecutive losses to the Toronto Maple leafs, including a 4-1 home defeat on Saturday night, as they head west for the start of a four-game road trip.

The Anaheim Ducks (7-7-3) absorbed a 2-1 home loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday and will be playing their fourth contest of a season-long five-game homestand.

Both teams will be short-handed while filling out the lineup card with relatively untested players.

Boston made the trip without left wingers Brad Marchand (eight goals, seven assists in 14 games) and Anders Bjork (three goals, six assists in 16 games).
They are dealing with upper-body injuries and will miss at least the next two games, according to coach Bruce Cassidy. Center David Krejci (back) went through a full contact practice for the first time Tuesday, will be evaluated further Wednesday morning and will most likely return Saturday at San Jose. The Bruins dressed five rookies against Toronto on Saturday and will likely do the same against the Ducks.

Cassidy said he knows that while the season is still in a relatively early stage, the games are piling up and the Nov. 25 Thanksgiving Holiday generally serves as a make-or-break benchmark.

Since the 2005-06 season, NHL teams in postseason position entering Thanksgiving Day have gone on to make the playoffs 77.3 percent of the time.The Bruins are 14th in the Eastern Conference while the Ducks are 13th in the West. The clock is ticking and turkeys are about to become popular.

"We're aware of the date with it," Cassidy told the Boston Globe. "We want to be mindful of it. But it can't run the show. As a group, we've got to stick with the process. If you trust the process and play the right way, then we believe we'll get enough points.

"It might not be by Nov. 24. That's just the way we feel. Given the amount of adversity we've dealt with, we don't know what our true team looks like. I don't think it's fair to use that benchmark and say, 'OK, we're not good enough."

The Ducks are in the same boat in terms of record and certainly aren't going to feel sorry for any opponent as they haved played without center Ryan Getzlaf, center Ryan Kesler, right winger Patrick Eaves, defenseman Cam Fowler, right winger Ondrej Kase and right winger Jared Boll.

Like the Bruins, the Ducks have been able to tread water thanks to the contributions of young players -- including a dose of call-ups from AHL San Diego -- such as center Kalle Kossila and rookie left winger Kevin Roy.

The Ducks have one win in their last six games (1-3-2) but there has been good news. Goaltender John Gibson, who had 35 saves Sunday, has been solid all season and Jakob Silfverberg, who has three goals in the last two games, is playing his best hockey.

Because of a quirk in the schedule, Anaheim coach Randy Carlyle also had two days to prepare for the Bruins and will have three days to get ready for Sunday's home game against Florida.

"There are lots of things we need to cover in practice," Carlyle said. "The one thing we've tried to sell is practice isn't punishment. We're here to practice to get better. Our team game has to get better.

"We played a game we weren't proud of for the first half of the game against Tampa. We didn't have the puck enough and we played in awe of them. We don't want to duplicate that again."

Krejci and Acciari are present at the optional morning skate. Not skating: Bergeron, Chara, Krug.

Ugh- hopefully its just maintenance ahead of a game- if all three are carrying small things and need a skate off, how long before at least one becomes a bigger thing? Not what we need! I am trying so hard to remain optimistic this season . . .
