The All-Star break is upon us, and while it may seem like just yesterday that the Bruins were hoisting a Stanley Cup banner to the TD Garden rafters, the B's have reached some hard-earned time off.
Unfortunately for the Bruins, they stumbled a bit toward the break, so the time off may do them some good.
Earlier in the week, Milan Lucic showed off his impressive shooting abilities as he picked a corner to beat Cam Ward in Carolina. In the second play, Andrew Ference scored a big goal in overtime to help the Bruins earn a point. He later drew the ire of the Rangers, and ultimately the league, with his vicious hit on New York's Ryan McDonagh.
The B's bounced back the next day with a wild win in Philadelphia. The Black and Gold got the scoring starting with a beautiful play from Brad Marchand, who found Patrice Bergeron for the game's first tally. Their linemate, Tyler Seguin, put the bow on an All-Star first half with a gorgeous goal against the Capitals on Tuesday with a little help from the Boston bench.
