New England hockey fans have waited a long time for the Boston Bruins to get back to the Stanley Cup finals and now they are about to embark on the task of bringing Lord Stanley's cup back to New England. The problem for the Bruins is that the team standing in their way will be wearing both Blue AND Green. "Luckily none of the games will be played on Thursday night", explained Bruins G.M. Peter Cherelli referring to the Thursday Night hockey league that plays it's games just up the road from Boston. "I don't want our players to get psyched out when they see both colors Blue and Green out on the ice at the same time", said B's coach Claude Julian. Jimmy the Geek has picked Vancouver in five games and he said, "It is going to be difficult for young Bruins players to not think about Thursday Night Hockey powerhouses Blue and Green and not feel overwhelmed." The Bruins will be looking at veteren Mark Recci who knows from experience that confusing the Canucks with Thursday Night stars will be a "Big mistake". Let's hope the Bruins and Canucks can get to a game seven because history will be on the Bruin's side.
