Game 22 Recap: BRUINS 2 SABRES 3 CONSARNIT

Well, the home-team winning streak continues in this series. Luckily, we don't see these guys until January, and it's in OUR building next time. I missed the first 2 periods due to family engagements. So once again, it's time to piece together what happened.

VIDEO RECAPODROME...ACTIVATING.

10 minutes into the game, the bruins are working it out of our zone when Derek Roy literally shoots it in from David Krejci's stick blade. Seriously. Ridiculous. Want proof? Fine. Here:

See? Unbelievable. 0-1.

2 Minutes left in the 1st, and Derek Roy sneaks one in short side.
0-2.

4 minutes into the second, the Bruins start battling back. This nice little number is what we like to call a "Matt Hunwick Garbage Goal." Krejci-Kobasew-Miller-Kobasew-Miller-Hunwick-GOAL.

1-2. Hope springs eternal.

Then 5 minutes into the second, Hecht on the Sabres PK streaks up and rifles one past Thomas. Just embarassing.
1-3.

Thornton fights Andrew Peters. They stood around a bunch, but eventually got to it.

Third period, about halfway through, this one's a doozy.
Kessel walks it in, gets it across to Savard, Savard half-whiffs on a slapshot, but it gets to Lucic. Lucic tips it when it gets to him, then Kessel finally grabs it and shows them how a goal is supposed to be scored.

2-3.

Thomas pulled with a minute to go, we can't bury it.
GAME.
Loss.

Not the worst game ever, the Bruins were certainly trying to get it going in the third. The announcers mentioned some funny bounces, maybe that's it.

Happy Thanksgiving, folks. See y'all Friday for my early-morning Preview. Hmmmmm.....

Record: 14-4-4
L10: 8-1-1
Away: 7-3-3
Streak: L1
GO BRUINS!
