Shawn Thornton Looking Forward to Intense Series Against Canadiens

The B’s will now face their long-time rivals, the Canadiens. These two teams have a long history, and it’s filled with years and years of intense distaste for one another.

“It’s the playoffs, I love it” says Thornton. “The more intense, the better. We played them a lot in the past seven years that I’ve been here in the playoffs and it’s always fun for the fans, it’s fun for the people in both cities. I say embrace it.”
