Call it luck if you want to, but the Boston Bruins have been a healthy hockey team this season.
That luck might have just run out.
It’s been eleven days since Nathan Horton took the ice for the Boston Bruins in any form. He hasn’t played in a game, he hasn’t skated in practice, hell, he hasn’t participated in any skating drills.
The reason is that Horton is recovering from a concussion he suffered in that game eleven days ago against the Philadelphia Flyers.

Good things happen when you space the ice and crash the net, as the Bruins displayed perfectly on Tuesday night against the Senators.

Rask first out
Tuukka Rask has led the Bruins out to the Garden ice for the pre-game wamr-up, meaning he'll get the nod tonight against the Hurricanes, who are looking for their first ever season sweep of the Bruins.
Seidenberg's crazy goal.
Check out this crazy goal by Bruins defenseman Dennis Seidenberg as he takes a slap shot on net from center ice and beats Ottawa Senators' goalie Craig Anderson.
