Bruins @ Flyers Preview

This will be the fourth and final meeting between the 2 teams, but the first since the Winter Classic on January 1. That's almost 2 months. 2 months since that magical day at Fenway. 2 months for the Flyers to come up with some sort of plan to beat the Bruins, this time on the Flyers home turf. With Marc Savard out for who knows how long, Patrice Bergeron needs to step up as the #1 center. Jeff Penner has been called up in Chara's absence due to a lower back injury, while Dennis Wideman and Mark Stuart need to step up as top defenseman. Tonight the bruins will also be without Andrew Ferrence. All-in-all the B's will have it tough tonight without their 2 top players. Also add in the fact the the Flyers will be playing for the win. We'll just have to wait and see if the Bruins can break their 2-game losing streak against Phillie. The puck drops at 7:00 PM on NESN.
