Bruins vs Red Wings: Game 5 - finish them!
(Oh, Marchand. Just. Why.) |
Venue: TD Garden
TV Station: NBC
On a rainy day in Boston, the Bruins have a chance to knock the Wings out of the playoffs, and advance to the second round. The Red Wings are going to be playing even more desperate than last game so the Bruins have one of the toughest games so far ahead of them.
Keys To The Game
1) Tuukka Time: Tuukka Rask has been nominated for the Vezina this season for the first time in his career. The Bruins need him to continue that Vezina status going into this game and the rest of the playoffs. Tuukka is sure to face an onslaught of shots tonight and he'll have to be a brick wall.
2) Zetterberg: Zetterberg was the rally point for Detroit's play in game four. It was clear that Zetterberg was the reason for the Wings extreme boost in play. He could be the rallying point for the Wings again tonight so the Bruins should focus their defense on Zetterberg.
