Penguins Defeat Bruins

The Bruins winning streak came to end today as they were defeated by the Pittsburgh Penguins, 2-1. The Penguins have remained unbeaten since the Olympic break, while the Bruins have a 2-2 record. The goals of the game were scored by Blake Wheeler for the Bruins, and Pascal Dupuis and Evengi Malkin for the Penguins.

With 5:37 left in the game, Marc Savard took a hit from Matt Cooke, was left unconcious, and had to be taken off the ice on a strecher. There was no penalty on the hit for Cooke.

The season series between the two teams is now at 2-1 Pittsburgh, with one more game to play at the Garden on March 18. The next game for the Bruins will be Tuesday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs at 7:00 PM.

Update on Marc Savard: Savard was hit in the head losing conciousness briefly on the ice. He suffered a concussion from the hit. He was not transported to a hospital, but will remain at the team hotel in Pittsburgh with a member of the Bruins' medical staff tonight as a precaution.

Today, in their second game of this very long road trip, Zdeno Chara and the Boston Bruins will be bringing it against Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins at Mellon Arena. The season series between the teams is tied thus far, this being 3 out of 4 between each other. Tim Thomas will be getting the start in goal again for the 3rd straight game. Tuuka Rask (knee) and Andrew Ference (groin) are listed as day-to-day and will miss todays game for the Bruins. Both teams are coming off winning streaks, which will end for one team tonight.

Who do u think will pull out the win today: the Bruins, who have done well on the road, or the Penguins, who are the defending Stanley Cup Champions?
