The reason they didnt send the goons on Cooke was because they still had a game to win. Playing the last 5 minutes of the game short handed would be a terrible idea. They see the Pens again on the 18th so be ready for a little revenge on one of their skill players.
It seemed as though they might be able to turn things around, but now it will be tough without Savard. They've been dealing with injuries all year, and scoring goals never seemed to be a strong point. I'm hoping that they can get a little meaner down the stretch, but with Lucic hurting, Thorton occasionally getting a healthy scratch, and Begin not being as tough as we thought, they may have trouble. Big Z has been too nice, and Stuart has had a few injuries, the big bad Bruins arent so bad.
There is still hope for the playoffs, and if they get there its a new season. Need to beat the last place Maple Leafs first though.
