Bruins coming off another disapointing and frustrating loss, i would expect some emotion like in the Atl game a few weeks ago.


Thorts vs. Godard
Looch vs. Rupp
AND IN THE FIGHT OF THE NIGHT- SAVARD VS. COOKE. HAHA SORRY COULDNT RESIST


I would like to see Charas emotions show up during the game.

[Sapunka16]

Bissonnette-Janssen
Orr-Westgarth
McCarty-Lemieux

I'd like to see Thorton-Engelland, but I don't really expect it to happen.

Orr vs Westgarth

and I wouldn't mind seeing Schenn step up to Clifford tonight. Going to be a couple late nights coming up for Leaf fans.

Lol, awesome. It's sad watching the NHL continue to market the Detroit - Colorado "rivalry" a decade after it's death.

IF Godard is in tonight he and Thornton are a lock. Godard has already lost to Thornton this year and it will be his first fight since the loss to Carkner. It's pretty much a must win situation for Godard. If he goes out and loses again his career in Pittsburgh is pretty much over. I don't really expect him to play but if he does I'm guaranteeing he will go with Thornton.

I heard McQuaid may be out. the Bruins called up Bartowski on an emergency basis.

I wouldn't say he lost to Thornton, at most Thornton edged him by landing 1 or 2 more punches.

I agree that if Godard can't beat Thornton, the Penguins don't have much of a reason to keep him there when they already have Engelland.

I don't follow the Penguins website or TV stations like you might, is there anything you know about Godard that the rest of us wouldn't, with regards to whether or not he will play?

[ROZZY]

Westie vs Orr See what Westie can do against top 5 guy

[Sugden Flu]

There's potential matchups in all of the games, with the exception of Detroit/Colorado. But, maybe Mike Babcock will lay a placenta burger on the ice between periods to entertain the fans?

Thornton vs. Engelland
Lucic vs. Rupp
Bissonnette vs. Janssen

Arron Asham will not be in the Pens line up tonight due to an illness. Dustin Jeffrey was recalled from WB/S to take his place.
