lucic took on orr tonight and took some heavy shots, from where we are sitting it looks like Luch may have broken his nose again. he left the ice and didnt return. lets see if he is back for thd second.
** Update **
There is a discussion going on over at the 98.5 Sports Hub … Cherry says Lucic quit and hid behind the linesman.. Interesting observation. When I saw it live it looked like Lucic broke his nose and backed off to protect himself and thats when the refs stepped in.. Watch the video for yourself..

Chara celebrates Gordie Howe’s 81st birthday with what else a Gordie!
A goal an assist and a fight. Way to go Z, and Happy Birthday Gordie!

Even though Luch got bloodied, he landed some big blows on Oreskovic. No take down, but #17 gets it on points.
We need a goal for a Gordie.

That was a brutal fight in the first period. Both guys throwing lots of hard punches. The fight only stopped when the sweater went over Luch’s head. It seems that his helmet comes off too easy and he can never get the other guy’s off! Luch went down the tunnel “for repairs” as Jack Edwards said. It’s tough to say who really won the fight. Maybe bonus points for Luch for throwing and landing a blind punch or two with the sweater over his head?
Props for Axie for giving it to Ruutu a little bit. Honorable mention for Ryder’s HUGE hit on whoever he hit in the first as well.
Highly unlikely this game will get more polite before it’s over.

Only the second period so far but what a display of total team play. Hunwick is taking care of business on both ends of the ice, Thomas is looking like the All Star he is (with his saves AND his assist!).
Thornton responds early in the second and has a go with Parros. Thort held is own, taking a few shots and ultimately got the take down. Parros looks like he’d play on the antagonist’s team in a movie.
Luch absolutely pounded Brown. Definitely not your normal bout. That was a personal battle being fought. He was certainly fired up afterwards.
We learned that Savy can only be pushed so far. Not much of a fight due to what looked like a loss of balance.
Of course, thrown in between all this fighting is four B’s goals with two of them scored by Kobasew.
Great fire and great team chemistry happening tonight.
John Bishop wrote it best…
“That is a fired up Bruins team going to the locker room. Anaheim poked the bear and the bear woke up.”
This should be an exciting third period!
Not too much excitement so far, but Bitz shines again. Good effort, good show of strength as he scores his fourth goal of the season.

After the first NJ penalty last night, the camera went to the box and behind the glass what do I see? A Lucic Crew shirt! Thanks to who ever that was!
Thornton had a go early. It’s a shame he lost his footing, but at least he got back up. I wouldn’t award a clear winner as it seemed they both were throwing punches with no one giving out more than they were getting.
Overall sloppy play last night. It was a great team effort to climb back into the game – but no one wants to lose like that. At least they got a point.

I still don’t like him. Good for Bitz for standing up and going at it. The fight started out slow, and Brashear got what looked like a few good shots in at the end.
Bitz is fighting, Thornton is scoring. Who’d have thunk it?
