Posted By Mike Petraglia On November 21, 2008 @ 9:10 pm In General | No Comments

The beat rolls on for the hottest team on ice. The Bruins dispatched of the over-matched Florida Panthers, 4-2, in the first regular season Friday night NHL game in Boston in 31 years. The win also helped the Bs tied the New York Rangers for first place in the Eastern Conference. Listen to them talk after, and you get the sense that they know they can play even better. A great thought for fans of the Black and Gold and a scary thought for the rest of the NHL.

Patrice Bergeron said the Bruins didn’t give the Panthers much early on ^[3].

Bergeron and the Bruins will now focus on their arch-rival Canadiens Saturday night in Montreal ^[4].

Dennis Wideman said the Bruins can still play better ^[5].

Head coach Claude Julien said despite the success, the Bruins won’t be reading their clippings ^[6].

Julien said his team is learning to handle success ^[7].

Tim Thomas said the team is aware of how well they’re playing but keeping things in perspective ^[8].

Former Bruin Nick Boynton, sporting stitches on his brow and chin from a fight with Milan Lucic, said there’s no getting around the fact that the Bruins are for real ^[9].
