After spending five months on the football beat with the Patriots, I'm back on hockey with the Bruins.
Boston just concluded its game-day skate at the Garden in preparation for tonight's game against the New York Rangers. For the Bruins, Tim Thomas (19-14-3) will get the nod between the pipes, while it's likely Henrik Lundqvist (20-15-2) will start for the Rangers.
The big news of the day surrounded Bruins forward Brad Boyes, who has just one goal in his last 14 games. Ever since his three-point (one goal, two assists) performance against the Devils on Dec. 14, he has just four points (one goal, three assists) in the last 18 games.
"There are signs [of him coming around]," said Bruins coach Dave Lewis. "He just hasn't played this season with a lot of confidence. He can be more physical, and when he does that he gets himself into the game. He's got a great shot and should shot the puck more."
