Well unlike last year, the Bruins have solidified a spot in the Eastern Conference Championship and are coming off an impressive sweep of those bullies from Philly. However, next up for the bears is the upstart Tampa Bay Lightning, a team that won the Cup a few years back and holds a core of those same superstars ( Vinny Lecavalier, Martin St. Louis) plus wonderboy Steven Stamkos. With Bergeron sitting the first couple of games out with another concussion, the B's have there work cut out for them with signifigant holes in the penalty kill and powerplay. Once again, Thomas will have to play on his head for most of this series as Tampas offense is red hot and stacked with firepower, however if one team has the defense for the job, it's Boston. Another classic battle of ground and pound vs. flash and speed, so far the Bruins have been able to deal with the quick and crafty Canadians and the speedy yet physical Flyers. This one goes the distance and this Boston team of Destiny edges these grease bolts from Disney Land. Bruins in 7.
