The Fraser/Soderberg line buzzing, but can't seem to convert... still 0-0

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:22:33 AM
I guess that crowd was late-arriving... lots of people suddenly seem to have shown up

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:23:53 AM
Smith with a one-timer blast. Mazanec makes the save...

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:30:25 AM
Legwand with an empty net, just blasts it wide... that was as open as it gets

Fisher fires a shot, Stalberg puts in the rebound. 1-0 #preds with 1:56 left in the second

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:36:26 AM
Nystrom goes to the box... looked like Iginla may have hit him from behind before. They call interference on Nystrom

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:39:40 AM
Gaustad blocks a Hamilton shot at the buzzer, a little slow to get up. 1-0 #preds after 2

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:40:46 AM
The Bruins list it right on the scoresheet as a "sellout figure" With the weather it's clearly not a sellout

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:50:09 AM
Speed RT @marctorrence : Oklahoma fans are chanting "S-E-C."

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 1:50:21 AM
It's not just me! RT @TheBruinsBlog : This close to dipping my feet in a cup of coffee. Arctic in press box tonight.

#preds kill off the Nystrom minor

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:04:06 AM
Bruins in less danger of dropping their third straight for the first time this season. Boychuk ties it at 1-1.

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 2:04:20 AM
Slick move by Spooner to slip past forechecker along wall. Confident play.

by Fluto Shinzawa via twitter 1/3/2014 2:05:08 AM
Bruins have woken up and are playing quite well, getting most of the chances...

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:07:56 AM
Colin Wilson with the great defensive play, denying Chara on the wraparound

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:15:35 AM
Bruins in even less danger of dropping their third straight. Go up on Iginla goal. It's 2-1.

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 2:16:54 AM
Who else, but Jarome Iginla with the go-ahead goal. 2-1 Bruins with 7:31 left in the third period

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:17:17 AM
Lucic with the nice feed to Iginla

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:17:55 AM
Jarome Iginla is a strong man. Roman Josi looked like Jeff Van Gundy on that goal.

by Fluto Shinzawa via twitter 1/3/2014 2:18:24 AM
Six game point streak for Iginla/Lucic/Krejci.

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 2:19:15 AM
That's Iginla's 33rd goal in 52 games against the #preds in his career. Most by any player versus Nashville...

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:21:24 AM
Nashville ties it. Bruins fans boo.

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 2:22:27 AM

Shea Weber just pastes Marchand... just slammed in front of the #preds bench

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:27:58 AM
This game is going to OT...

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:34:07 AM
A well-earned road point for the #preds

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 2:34:17 AM
More hockey!

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 2:36:31 AM

Can't wait. Snowshoes ready. RT @DanCagen : Despite the weather, #Bruins are planning an 11:30 a.m. practice tomorrow in Wilmington.

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 3:49:40 AM
I'm assuming @mchmura will be picking up the Bruins reporters on his way to Wilmington. Thanks, Matt!

by Amalie Benjamin via twitter 1/3/2014 3:54:43 AM
As much as I respect Saban, there's something about the SEC getting wrecked in a BCS game that's heartwarming...

by joshuacooper via twitter 1/3/2014 4:53:38 AM
Thanks @mbta . Great service on tough night.

by Fluto Shinzawa via twitter 1/3/2014 4:55:34 AM
