Congrats Coach! (Jack Adams)
Congrats Z! (Norris)
Congrats Timmy! (Vezina)
There’s no Stanley Cup this year, but the B’s brought some hardware back from Vegas.
Is anyone else getting antsy for next season?
Chara broke the 16 year old Hardest Shot record Saturday night and won his third consecutive Hardest Shot contest recording a 105.4 MPH laser beam. The previous record was held by Al Iafrate at 105.2 in 1993.
Blake Wheeler also took home a new trophy. He was the MVP of the young stars game, netting 3 goals to lead the rookies over the sophmores. This kid has some mad skills.
Marc Savard finished second the Elimination Shootout behind Phoenix’s Shane Doan.
Who could forget Timmy, he came up with save after save.
Lets hope the trend continues and the B’s players can help lead the EAST to a victory tonight.
The NHL announced today that Boston Bruins Zdeno Chara, Marc Savard and Tim Thomas have been named to the Eastern Conference All-Star roster for the 2009 NHL All-Star game.
I’m glad they got Timmy on board, he deserves to be there.
So our Eastern team looks like this.

While the Montreal guys are all great players, I am disappointed to see 4 of them as starters.
