Tampa(6-3-0) vs Boston (7-1-1) - Game Cancelled

[Danman1116]

You get the point, it's gonna snow. I have a feeling the game will either be moved or rescheduled based on the fact that Boston is getting at least 2 feet of snow.

BOSTON -- Bruins coach Claude Julien has shaken up his forward lines and given everything an interesting new look at Friday morning practice on the TD Garden ice as the snow falls outside the building.

Still no word on if there’s any anticipated delay to the 1 p.m. puck drop for the B's meeting with the Tampa Bay Lightning at the Garden on Saturday, but it normally takes more than a little snow for any self-respecting NHL club to postpone/delay the start of a hockey game.

Brad Marchand (upper body) is back on the ice skating with his teammates, and Claude Julien has kept 21-year-old Tyler Seguin skating with David Krejci and Milan Lucic after that trio exploded for two goals in the first two minutes of the third period against the Canadiens earlier this week. Each of the top two lines has a little bit of a different look, and both Shawn Thornton (concussion) and Daniel Paille (upper body injury due to high-stick) have returned as full participants to practice. Here are the reconfigured line combos and defensive pairings at Bruins practice:



Marchand/Lucic-Krejci-Seguin
Peverley-Bergeron-Horton
Bourque-Kelly-Tardif
Paille-Campbell-Thornton/MacDermid

Chara-Boychuk
Seidenberg-Hamilton
Ference-McQuaid

Rask
Khudobin

Don't understand Marchand playing with Krejci and Seguin. Keep it Looch-Krejci-Seguin. **** Pevs to the second. and they send Spooner down (wasted his first game on the fourth) but keep Tardif up here and try him on the third with bourque and kelly?? WOOF. that line will blow if they keep it that way.

Its just practice.

After the habs game he has no choice but to keep LKS line

Pev and Kelly should NEVER be broken up

B>H you know CJ by now he never trusts a kid to play too much especially if its a 1 goal game. thats why we barely saw spooner

Personally I'm shocked at how much Hamilton is playing...speak volumes to how good he really is

I'm expecting Tuukka vs. Lindback tonight for each team. Tampa is currently on a 3 game losing streak and I have a feeling tonight will be 4 games. With Boston traveling to Buffalo and Tuukka's lack of success vs them (4-5-1 / 2.71 GAA / .914 SV%) we'll see Douby in net tomorrow night.

Looks like it'll be Garon, not Lindback, for TB vs. B's if game is played. Went 1-1 with 3.51 GAA vs. B's in 1st yr w/ Bolts in 11-12.

Was really hoping to see Lindback in net tonight. Garon has never fared well in against Boston

No game tonight:

NHL ‏@NHL
Tonight's TBL/BOS game has been postponed due to continuing, weather-related State of Emergency that is in effect in BOS. Make-up date TBA.

The roads are pretty much fine I don't think they should have cancelled unless Tanpa had problems comin in

MBTA is shutdown and there's parking bans everywhere throughout the city. Plus the sidewalks probably weren't plowed
Probably best they didn't play
