The Bruins are in Newark to play the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center tonight at 7pm. The Bruins still cling to third in the Atlantic with 88 points with the Detroit Red Wings breathing down their necks in the first Wild Card spot at 87 points. What’s worse is that the Wings are playing the Habs in Montreal tonight, which makes me want to root for Team Meteor to win in Quebec. So, as stated in a previous Game Recap, a win here is a Super Duper Important Win™.
The Devils’ situation is different. Being all but out of the playoffs with 80 points, New Jersey would need not only to win each of their remaining 6 games, but for the four teams ahead of them in the standings to lose all of theirs. It’s looking unlikely.

Local guy Cory Schneider will not be in net tonight after finishing a conditioning stint in Albany. Don’t be fooled into thinking New Jersey tried cloning Torey Krug, former Bruin David Warsofsky is wearing 47 and playing in the third pairing for the Devils. If it’s to believed by what is on Daily Faceoff he’s also on the first Power Play Unit.
As for the Bruins: an injured Ryan Spooner stayed behind in Boston making room for Loui Eriksson to play at center on a line with Frank Vatrano and Jimmy Hayes. Brett Connolly slots back in on the fourth line with Noel Acciari and Landon Ferraro.
