They have suffered through so many injuries this season, and have just lost Chuck Kobasew for the rest for the season, and Marc Savard(No!)for at least a week. It is basically like the end of the Sox' 2006 season, but throughout the whole season, not just the end.
It seems like whenever the Bruins get an injury, at least one player steps up, and helps fill the role of the missing player. None of them have outstanding numbers, except for Savard's assist total, but they get the job done night in and night out.
Rather than getting discouraged over bad losses, they get motivated to become better, and improve their weaknesses.
The team doesn't depend on one player, it depends on team unity, and defining every player's role within that team.
I am proud of this team for all they have accomplished this season, even if they don't make the playoffs, or get swept in the first round. They have exceeded every expectation I had for them at the beginning of the season, and look to be in good shape for the next few seasons with all of their young talent emerging.
I would also like to congratulate Milan Lucic for winning the Bruin's 7th Man Award. He is a throwback to the Cam Neely days, and embodies what being a Bruin used to mean, and what it will hopefully mean in the future.
