Bruins
Mmm, mmm, good
It isn't often that This Blog sees a single play worthy of its own post, but the shorthanded -- at five-on-three! -- goal by Bruin Gregory Campbell, a high-risk/high-reward play even with a big lead. It took some serious onions to go for the puck in that situation anyway, and Campbell finished it with a great shot. It's only one play in a long season, but it's worthy of note.
Hall of Fame
Not that Bruins fans aren't giddy enough, but Taylor Hall and his Windsor Spitfires are one game away from a sweep of the Barrie Colts for the Ontario Hockey League championship. Hall's got 32 points in 15 playoff games so far. This would be Windsor's second straight league title. Even though Hall has slipped behind Tyler Seguin in the rankings of NHL prospects,he'd still be my pick. That we all know who Taylor Hall is should be a measure of how the Bruins have managed to turn their season around.

“Still too early, but I share the concern. Would love to see the eventual second unit guys – Baby, Jeff Green, Arroyo, West and probably Kristic – get to play together. Rondo looks exhausted and it would be helpful if Doc could cut back his minutes.
Also, I strongly suspect there were concerns that Perk was not the same player anymore.”

“Packer was serious about hoops. I knew it was a big game when Musberger/Nantz would call a game with Packer. He was old school so he took delight in fundamentals such as a pick/roll or boxing out a rebounder. I'm still a young kid, but I enjoyed his analysis.”
