Boston Bruins (12-8-4) vs. New Jersey Devils (15-6-1)

GAMEDAY HEADLINES:
- This is the second of four meetings this season between the Bruins and Devils, the first ending in New Jersey's favor via a 2-1 victory.
- Both Tim Thomas and Milan Lucic listed as "questionable" for todays game since no real word has been released on either players status. From rumors of Thomas having a broken hand to not even a peep about whats going on with Lucic. Guess we will just have to wait till game time and see.
- Boston is hoping to extend their win streak to five-games with a win over the Devils today.
- Stick salute to Dennis Wideman who spent a good portion of his Thanksgiving deliveing pies to the homeless. Unlike me who spent it delivering food and booze to my mouth.
- Other than this I will be lucky to get up for todays game (DVR thank you) because I have enjoyed myself a little too much the past two days. Sorry for the piss poor preview.
