NESN Kicks Off Live Bruins Coverage Saturday Night Against Panthers

The Bruins are just about two weeks away from their date with the Coyotes in Prague, but for many fans, the B's season kicked off Wednesday night in Montreal.

The Bruins, who topped the Canadiens 4-2 in the opener but fell to the Panthers on Thursday, will get a rematch with the Florida club Saturday night in Boston.

Saturday night also marks NESN's first Bruins game of the 2010-11 season, with coverage starting at 7 p.m.
