The Boston Garden and it's inhabitants!

- It's 17 degrees and sunny, they have every door in the rink open...

- The pucks are stacked at the garbage door right beside the incinerator...

- The ice is like sugar cake...

- Brian McGratton is having the edge taken off his skates, he doesn't want to be too deep in the ice when he throws the big right hand...

- Thornton is thinking about his tape job, not for his stick but his wrist...Note: He tapes his wrist and fore arm almost to the elbow...

- Lucic is sitting there grinning like Rocky Marciano, thinking about his next victim...

- Chara is wondering how he could be more intimidating...make a rush lose the puck and squash Kuba...ya know we gotta test this guy???

- Tim Thomas is fighting with his focus...we are so easy for him???

- Coach Julien may have made the blunder of the week preparing for the last war instead of the one they have tonight...

- The Bruins have never seen our "A" road game...the attack forecheck...

- Our "Bad Ice" Power Play, "Sarge" and "EriK" can lay 'em flat with the best of 'em!

- Our best goalie in full force "Battle Mode!"

- This is going to be a better game than Chris Stephenson may think!
