Prague Ends In a Split

For those that missed the opening Bruins series in Prague over the weekend, it ended in a split, 1-1, against the Coyotes.

It was a good start for rookie Tyler Seguin, who got his first regular season NHL goal on Sunday. Nathan Horton, also new to the team, had a good start himself on Saturday, providing the only 2 Bruins goals of the game.

Tuukka Rask took the start, along with the loss, in the season opener on Saturday. Tim Thomas had the start, and win, on Sunday.

The second game overall was better than the first. On Sunday, the Bruins played with more emotion and grit. This helped lead them to the win.

Though they've only played 2 games so far, and their next game isn't until this Saturday, I'm optomistic that this is the year of the bear. The front office made some needed improvements during the offseason, and they started to show on Sunday.

Hopefully, Marc Savard will recover soon enough and add to those improvements. With a 1-1 record to begin with. I can only see this team going up, and I hope its true.
